[Intro 1]
[Am][D][Am]
[G][Am][Dm][Am]
[G][Am][Dm][Am]

[Verse 1]
His driver's license said [Am]James,
he went [Dm]by Jim[Am]
A gangster wannabe, yeah, baby,
that was [Dm]him[Am]
He stole his uncle's .44 last Friday [Dm]night
[Am]Said if I wanted in,
we'd have to plan this thing just [Dm]right[Am]
We'll need the gloves,
we'll need the bags, a couple masks
We'll need to steal a car with
windows tinted black
We picked the nearest bank
on Main [Dm]and [Am]17th
We wrote down every line from every
movie that we'd seen
Screamin'-

[Verse 2]
"This is a robbery, [Am]now
get down on [Dm]the floor[Am]
We're here for all the shit that you don't
need no [Dm]more [Am](yeah)
We want your cash, open the safe,
get off your [Dm]phone[Am]
Don't be a hero,
and you might just make it home"

[Verse 3]
Get 'em [Am]up
And get down
[G]Reach for[Am] the sky
Then go ahead and kiss the [Dm]ground
[Am]Get 'em up
And get down
[Dm]Reach for [Am]the sky
Then go ahead and kiss the ground

[Verse 4]
Get 'em [Am]up
[Dm]Get 'em, g[Am]et 'em up

[Verse 5]
[Am]
A freshly stolen Mustang small
[Dm]block [Am]302
Drove past the bank a dozen
times this after[Dm]noon[Am]
The only parking spot was
half a block away
Gave us time to practice just
exactly what to say
Screamin'-

[Verse 6]
"This is a robbery [Am]now,
get down on [Dm]the floor[Am]
We're here for all the shit that you don't
need no [Dm]more [Am](yeah)
We want your cash, open the safe,
get off [Dm]your phone[Am]
Don't be a hero,
and you might just make it home"

[Verse 7]
Get 'em [Am]up
And get down
[Dm]Reach for [Am]the sky
Then go ahead and kiss the [Dm]ground
[Am]Get 'em up
And get down
Reach for the sky
Then go ahead and kiss the ground

[Verse 8]
Get 'em [Am]up
[G](Get 'em, get [Am]'em up)
[Dm](Get 'em, get 'em [Am]up)

[Verse 9]
The only thing I wish that [Am]one
of [Dm]us had kn[Am]own
That it was Sunday and the god-
damn bank was [Dm]closed[Am]
Too bad we didn't see
the cops across [Dm]the street
[Am]We dropped our guns and tried to run and there
went all our dreams of screamin'-

[Verse 10]
"This is a robbery, [Am]now
get down on [Dm]the floor[Am]
We're here for all the shit that you
don't need no [Dm]more [Am](yeah)
We wanted easy street and
now we'll never [Dm]know
[Am]Somebody call my mom and tell
her I ain't coming home

[Verse 11]
Get 'em [Am]up
And get down
[Dm]Reach for [Am]the sky
Then go ahead and kiss the [Dm]ground
[Am]Get 'em up
And get down
Reach for the sky
Then go ahead and kiss the ground
Get 'em [Am]up
