The sniper just takes his aim

Come home disappointed every time they put you down

Laughing with the old boys, saying that it's all noise

Verse:
G+G                E minorEm
All the buttons of my overcoat

They have fallen off one by one
C majorC                           A minorAm
You wouldn't even like me if you'd never had a drink
C majorC                         A minorAm
You wouldn't even like me if you never stopped to think
D MajorD               G+G   D MajorD              G+G
Standing in the shadow, turning wives to widows
