Topic: Girl With A Gun

I haven't done a new song for a while and the first couple of lines were sitting on my pad for a few weeks. Strumming some chords and a sequence came together then the rest of the song came flooding out.

Girl With A Gun.Undefined


[Em] She left me laying in a [G] pool of my [A] blood.


I [Em] gave her my world but that [D] wasn't [C] enough.


I [Em] called at her shadow but [G] she never [A] turned.


[C] Why did I [B7] think that she [Em] would?




I'm laying here knowing my time's at an end.


It's at times just like this that I wish I had a friend.


There's a pain in my heart knowing she would do that.


It's hurting much more than the bullet in my back.




( Am-Em-Am-G-B7-Em)




I thought she'd smile and tell me yes.


Then she'd go looking for a wedding dress.


But she just smirked and pulled out a gun.


I turned around and went to run.




(CHORUS)







[Am] Too late, too late. I heard the crack.


[Em] Hot searing pain running over my back.


[Am] My legs gave way and I'm eating dirt.


I'm [G] dead on the floor, she's got [B7] blood on her [Em] skirt.


I kind of knew she was sometimes crazy.


I was a fool to think she was my soul mate lady.


Where did she find that rusty old gun?


While I lay here dying and she's on the run.




(CHORUS > Am-Em-Am-G-B7-Em|| OVER Da, da, da etc >CHORUS.




I fell in love with a girl with a gun.

Yes, I'm thinking stripped back, maybe just acoustic guitar, bass and piano?
