Tom: C

 C                       Am
All I wanna do is shoot guns
             C          Am
Throw me in jail or a cemetery
        G         F
I got money for commissary
 C                   Am
All I need is that, "Oh, he died too young"
                C                 Am
'Cause I don’t smile when I'm not high
             G              F
And I keep smiling all the time


[Pre-Chorus]
              C            Am            G
If I have to die someday, let it be gunfire
 F           C             Am
And I will go 'til I run tired
                G                       F
And toast to that and raise this blunt higher
                      C
But lord, don’t you let me die
   C               Am
No, not in an easy way


[Chorus]
  C                       Am
Let me go out like a youngster
          G                  F
Taking drugs, that's how we escape
             C
Let it be gunshots or plane crashes
  Am                           G      F
Just when I thought it was a safe passage
         C              Am                  G
Or let me go out in flames or a straight jacket
                  F              Am
But Lord, don't let me go the easy way
  G           F      C
Oh, not in an easy way


[Verse 2]
 C                       Am
My life fits on digital scales
   C                Am               G                      F
Convictions so violent, they know nothing about physical selves
       C       Am     G
But if I slip up I already got two strikes
 C                       Am
See my face out on the news
            G              F
Dodgin' bullets and blue lights


[Pre-Chorus]
               C           Am
If I have to die someday, let it be gunfire
            C           Am
And I will try to sit upright
      G                    F
And blow my smoke at the sunlight
                     C
But Lord, don't you let me die
    Am              G
No, not in a simple way


[Chorus]
  C                         Am
Let me go out like the gangsters
                G               F
Kill and be killed in a single day
              C                Am
Let it be gunshots or plane crashes
  G                           F
Just when I thought it was a safe passage
          C            Am            G
Or let me go out in flames or a straight jacket
                F                Am
But Lord, don't let me go the simple way
 G    F             C
Oh, not in a simple way


[Outro]
  C                       Am
All I wanna do is shoot guns
             C           Am
Throw me in jail or a cemetery
       G             F       C
I got money for commissary, yeah
