Chords with lyrics

(No Capo)

Intro.:  (Chord diagramD MajorD) x 4 bars

  Chord diagramB minorBm
If I could kill a word and watch it die
   Chord diagramD MajorD
I'd poison "never," shoot "goodbye"
  Chord diagramB minorBm                                   Chord diagramD MajorD
And beat "regret" when I felt I had the nerve
    Chord diagramB minorBm
Yeah, I'd pound "fear" to a pile of sand
      Chord diagramD MajorD
Choke "lonely" out with my bare hands
   Chord diagramB minorBm                                  Chord diagramD MajorD
And I'd hang "hate" so that it can't be heard
  Chord diagramB minorBm      Chord diagramG+G                   Chord diagramD MajorD
If I could only kill a word

Chord diagramB minorBm
I'd take "brokeness" out back
   Chord diagramD MajorD
And break "heartbreak," stand there and laugh
     Chord diagramB minorBm                                      Chord diagramD MajorD
Right in its face while shootin' it the bird
   Chord diagramB minorBm
I'd put "upset" down in its place
   Chord diagramD MajorD
I'd squeeze the life out of "disgrace"
   Chord diagramB minorBm                                  Chord diagramD MajorD
Lay "over" under six cold feet of dirt
  Chord diagramB minorBm      Chord diagramG+G                  Chord diagramD MajorD
If I could only kill a word

(Chorus)
              Chord diagramB minorBm
Give me sticks, give me stones
       Chord diagramG+G
Bend my body, break my bones
   Chord diagramD MajorD                                  Chord diagramA augmentedA
Use staff and rod to turn me black and blue
         Chord diagramB minorBm
'Cause you can't unhear, you can't unsay
      Chord diagramG+G
But if it were up to me to change
Chord diagramD MajorD                                                 Chord diagramA augmentedA
I'd turn "lies" and "hate" to "love" and "truth"
  Chord diagramB minorBm      Chord diagramG+G                 Chord diagramD MajorD
If I could only kill a word

(Verse 2)
Chord diagramB minorBm
I'd knock out "temptation"'s teeth
   Chord diagramD MajorD
I'd sever "evil," let it bleed
   Chord diagramB minorBm                                            Chord diagramD MajorD
Then light up "wicked," stand and watch it burn
Chord diagramB minorBm
I'd take "vice" and I'd take "vile"
Chord diagramD MajorD
Tie 'em up there with "hostile"
Chord diagramB minorBm                                         Chord diagramD MajorD
Hang 'em high and leave 'em for the birds
  Chord diagramB minorBm      Chord diagramG+G                 Chord diagramD MajorD
If I could only kill a word

(Chorus)
                 Chord diagramB minorBm
So give me sticks, give me stones
       Chord diagramG+G
Bend my body, break my bones
   Chord diagramD MajorD                                  Chord diagramA augmentedA
Use staff and rod to turn me black and blue
          Chord diagramB minorBm
'Cause you can't unhear, you can't unsay
      Chord diagramG+G
But if it were up to me to change
Chord diagramD MajorD                                                 Chord diagramA augmentedA
I'd turn "lies" and "hate" to "love" and "truth"
  Chord diagramB minorBm      Chord diagramG+G                  Chord diagramD MajorD
If I could only kill a word
  Chord diagramB minorBm      Chord diagramG+G                      Chord diagramD MajorD
