Easy or hard kid it's up to you
              A augmentedA      E MajorE
I don't wanna be here any more than you do
     A augmentedA
See the lump in my jacket?
BB
Yeah that's a pistol
C# minorC#m
Open up the register
  D MajorD
And grab me a fistful
  A augmentedA                          E MajorE
Of twenty dollar bills but keep your hands where I can see 'em
   A augmentedA                 E MajorE
I got babies at home and brother I gotta feed 'em

Verse 2:
N.C.           A augmentedA    E MajorE
I know you think I'm some kind of trash
             A augmentedA     E MajorE
Stickin' up a kid at the Quik-Trip gas
     A augmentedA            BB
But I've been to the desert man I served three tours
C# minorC#m                 D MajorD
Crawlin' in the dirt while you were sweepin' the floors
     A augmentedA                       E minorEm
And it's hard to keep a job when you just can't pretend
     BB                       A augmentedA
That you never heard a body bag zipping over your best friend

Put your hands up

I did what anybody else would do
               A augmentedA    E MajorE
I went the church sat in the very last pew
A augmentedA             BB
Preacher said Jesus would save my soul
    C# minorC#m             D MajorD
But he never showed up when we were out on patrol
   A augmentedA                    N.C. E minorEm
And a bomb went off and there he was pointing at me
     B minorBm              BB         A augmentedA
He didn't speak a word of English but I swear I heard him scream

Put your hands up

Bridge:
 A augmentedA           A minorAm
I ain't a bad man just a man outta luck
   E MajorE
And I know how it feels how it feels to be stuck
   A minorAm
Like everywhere you're turning the door's slammed shut
   E MajorE                        A augmentedA
Now I hate to be the one to pour the salt down in your cut
N.C.     E MajorE     A augmentedA
But put your hands up
