[Intro 1]
[F][Am][C][Em][C]

[Verse 1]
[F]Feeble bones took
[Am]me to a valuable weakness
There's no [Em]comfort in [F]silence
No [Am]real violence in [Em]words[G]
[Am]So I[F], sharpened my blade and b[Am]owed
[Em]my head before I [Am]ceased and desisted
[Em]And though my stomach
was a [F]ball of resistance
[Am]I went straight for the co[Em]urse

[Verse 2]
With [F]burns on the backs of [Am]my palms
Will I [Fm]regret [Am]my c[F]ause? or revel
in my [Em]thoughts?[C][Em]
I'm [F]caught in the winds of re[Am]morse
'Cause [F]everybody knows
[Em]

[Verse 3]
[C]What good [G]is a sword,
[C]next [Dm]to a sh[Am]otgun[C][Am][F][Am][C]
What good is a [Em]sword,
next to a [C]shotgun[Am][F][Am][C]
What good is a [Em]sword,
next to [C]a shotgun
[Am]

[Verse 4]
[F]How did I get stu[Am]ck in [Em]this
valiant po[Am]sition[Em]
When either I'll [F]survive for an instant
Or [Dm]cradle the [Em]earth?[G]
[C]My [F]God forsaken, wea[Em]kened pulse,
I knew I [Am]had to amend this
Though I never [Em]was a f[F]orce
to be [Em]reckoned, [Am]or
A sight to behold
[Em]

[Verse 5]
With [F]burns on the backs of my [Am]palms
Will [C]I reg[G]ret m[Dm]y cause[F]? or[Em]
rev[F]el [C]in my [Em]thoughts?
[Am]I'm [F]caught in [Em]the
[F]winds of [G]remorse
[Em]Cause ever[E]ybody
knows
[Am][Em]

[Verse 6]
[C]What good [G]is a sword,
next [Am]to a shotgu[C]n[Dm][F][Am][C]
What good is a [Em]sword,
next to [C]a shotgun[Dm][F][Am]
[C]What good is a [Em]sword, next to a shotgun
Am [C]I[Am]

[Verse 7]
[F]biting the bullet alo[Am]ne?[C]
Oh I know that I'd rather
be [Em]bold
(What good is a sword,
next [C]to a [F]shotgun)
And we're biting the bullet [Am]alone
[C]Oh I know that I'd rather
be [Em]bold
(What good is a sword,
next to [Am]a sh[C]otgu[C]n)[Em]
Am I biting the bullet [C]alone?[F][Am]
[Em]Oh I know that I'd rather
be bold
(What good is a sword, next to a shotgun)
