[Verse 1]
[A]Strangers are talking.
Bull[E]shit is walking [A]tonight.[E]
Young [A]lovers are breaking,
[E]Pretending there’s sweat
in [A]their [E]eyes.
[A]The tears leave no trace in the
light[E]s
[A]‘Cause it’s warming her face
so she [E]looks all right.
[A]You keep on escaping,
the [E]X is your alibi.
[A][E]

[Verse 2]
[Am]Guilty as charged and [F]you [E]know
that [G]you ought to be,
[Dm]So drop the act and the bull
[E]shit and keep it real.
[Am]Take what you [C]like.
[Am]Here’s a [E]great op[G]portunity.
[Dm]You shoot the sheriff, and [E]then shoot the deputy.
