Shoot Me Down chords by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Chords with lyrics

AbAb
An old sentimental night
F# minorF#m
you roll me at your sides
Eb MajorEb        C# minorC#m
you shot me down
AbAb
Though I had no enemy here
F# minorF#m
you get me very near and shoot me down
Eb MajorEb       C# minorC#m
shoot me down

AbAb
your hands they flutter up
F# minorF#m
Armed and dangerous my buttercup
Eb MajorEb        C# minorC#m
and shoot me down...
Bb majorBb
in flames

F# minorF#m
Stand back baby, stand back and let me breathe
AbAb
I think I must be
Bb majorBb       Eb MajorEb
fallin' outta here
F# minorF#m
I can hear the grass grow
        AbAb
I can hear the melting snow
        Bb majorBb        Eb MajorEb
I can feel your breath against my ear
F# minorF#m           AbAb    Bb majorBb
I might just disappear
AbAb           Bb majorBb
Yeah, wouldn't that be nice?
AbAb           Bb majorBb
Yeah, wouldn't that be nice?

Well, wouldn't that be nice?


AbAb
I look into your eyes
F# minorF#m
it comes as no great surprise
Eb MajorEb
you're gonna shoot me down
C# minorC#m
shoot me down

AbAb
I know that when you smile
F# minorF#m
it'll only be a short little while
Eb MajorEb      C# minorC#m
Shoot me down...
Bb majorBb
in flames

Eb MajorEb        AbAb
Shoot me down
Eb MajorEb     Bb majorBb
in flames
Eb MajorEb       AbAb
Shoot me down
Eb MajorEb     Bb majorBb
in flames


you're gonna shoot me down
oh, in flames
shoot me down, shoot me down
in flames
shoot me down in flames
shoot me down in flames
