Bullet Of Redemption chords and lyrics - GRAHAM PARKER

Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
That [C]bullet of [E]redemption
Didn't strike me well
[Am]Others are left bleeding
Oth[F]er people fell
That [C]little sphere of metal
[E]Keeps barreling along
Spin[Am]ning round the chamber
[F]And triggering this song

[Verse 2]
You know it [C]never quite got rid of you
I keep [E]seeing you around
No [Am]one ever disappears
Not [F]even when they're in the ground
That [C]bullet of redemption
[E]Didn't quite redeem
It [Am]doesn't really work that way
If you [F]know what I mean

[Verse 3]
You know it [C]moved at some velocity
Faster [E]than the speed of sound
But [Am]just like buckshot
It [F]scattered all around
We have to [C]follow its trajectory
[E]Like a poison dart
And it nev[Am]er stops moving
And now [F]it's stuck inside [C]my
[E]heart

[Interlude 1]
[E][Am][F][C][E]
[Am][F]

[Verse 4]
Well I [C]wish I'd known better
Instead [E]of turning you away
I [Am]wish I'd said something
But there was [F]nothing I could say
That [C]bullet of redemption
[E]You know it missed the mark
It might [Am]kill a person
But it [F]can't kill their spark

[Verse 5]
Cos [C]that's like an angel
[E]Hovering around
[Am]Hanging on my shoulder
With [F]a whispering sound
[C]Weighing down my conscience
[E]Like a piece of lead
Rip[Am]ping through my cortex
And [F]talking in my head
That [C]bullet of redemption
Well you can [E]hear the ricochet
Cos it nev[Am]er really vanishes
[F][C][E][Am]
[F][C][E]
Just [Am]keeps [F]blowin' me away
