               G
For all of the bile

The hate and the lies

No one should get killed

Charlie shouldn't have died
         D                                                 Em
Well you can't hate the gun and love the gun that shot yer rival
    Bm                                 C
You can't be kind and wish hate upon a child
                  G
Everybody's gotta say
                        C
What they're needing to say
   G                          C
As soon as they're needing to say it
               G
The freedom to speak
        C
To be a freak
                   D
And the freedom to say you hate it
D
And have a big ole conversation


🎸 Chorus:
        Em
I heard laughing
            A7
I heard glee
                      C
But it coulda been you
Em             G
It coulda been me

🎸 Verse 2:
                G
Out in the bloodshed everyone loses
G
There's unforgettable scars
           C
Out in the bloodshed permanent bruises
C
Shapes up who you are
         D
Children left to wander America aimless
       Em
With a firebrand of resent
          Bm
Wondering who it is took my daddy
       C
With a destiny of revenge
           G                     C   G
Out in the bloodshed the cycle begins
              C
And everyone dies
         G                              C
Spin the wheel, if you don't get killed
            D
You'll wind up dead inside


🎸 Chorus:
        Em
I heard laughing
        A7
I heard glee
                   C
But it coulda been you
Em             G
It coulda been me
