Maximum Firepower chords by The Nightwatchman

Chords with lyrics

A minorAm
This one\'s for the shoeshine boy
And the farmer in debt
A minorAm
Each string is barbed wire
Each chord is a threat


G+G
This blues guy I met
That never had a hit
A minorAm
Said you don\'t gotta be loud, son
To be heavy as shit
A minorAm
Well I\'m the triggerman, baby
And tonight I\'ll prove
A minorAm
That this machine here
Well it kills fascists too
G+G
And don\'t be surprised

If the sermon on the mount
A minorAm
Next time is delivered
In a little coffee house
DmDm
Cause somebody here\'s
Gotta let them know
A minorAm
I doubt it\'s me
But here I go
DmDm
I hit the button
Tape started to roll
A minorAm
The song\'s got fire
G+G
But it\'s got no soul
C majorC        A minorAm     G+G
There\'s a lonely stretch of blacktop
G+G        A minorAm
Between here and home
C majorC        GAmi
Drop down into the, valley
G+G          A minorAm
Piano playin\' in the living room
FF         A minorAm
And when you see the white barn
G+G             A minorAm
You\'ll know the journey\'s through
C majorC        G+G     A minorAm
My dog\'s barking in the backseat
G+G        A minorAm
Cause he knows it too
Dmi
C majorC
G+G
A minorAm
You\'ll need a fake passport
And fix your disguise
And don\'t fire, sugar
Til you see the whites of their eyes
G+G
I turned the other cheek
But now I\'m through
A minorAm
The skin you\'re in
Makes choices for you
DmDm
I was checking off names
And I came late to dinner
A minorAm
Seems the slices of pie
Keep getting thinner and thinner
G+G
Brothers and sisters
Rejoice and repent
A minorAm
The landlord\'s dead
You can keep the rent
DmDm
You got twelve fine friends
But one of \'em\'s rotten
A minorAm
There\'s a hole out back
Ain\'t got no bottom
DmDm
Forty days in the wilderness
Forty sleepless nights
A minorAm
I\'m confused, half blind
G+G
And sure I\'m right

There\'s a lonely stretch of blacktop
Between here and home
Drop down into the valley
Piano playin\' in the living room
And when you see the white barn
You\'ll know the journey\'s through
My dog\'s barking in the backseat
Cause he knows it too

DmDm
Officer please
I won\'t be long
A minorAm
Called the radio station
Requested this song
DmDm
I had my doubts
About what I knew
A minorAm
So I turned it up
G+G
Then it sounded true
A minorAm
Kiss the ring
If the Queen will let you
But come over the fence
And the dogs will get you
G+G
On a rope hung the traitor
On a hook hung the meat
A minorAm
You and me are missing persons
      C majorC      G+G
Til we\'re counted in the streets
A minorAm
So seize the time
And storm the tower
G+G
And come correct
A minorAm
With Maximum Firepower
For the sins of the fathers
The son he must pay

The Nightwatchman giveth
     C majorC  G+G
And he taketh away
DmDm
Thought hard about this next line
Pretty sure it\'s true
A minorAm
If you take a step towards freedom
It\'ll take two steps towards you
DmDm
So mister I ain\'t scared
And mister I ain\'t worried
A minorAm            G+G
Cause on that lonely stretch of blacktop
I sit as judge and jury

There\'s a lonely stretch of blacktop
Between here and home
Drop down into the valley
Piano playin\' in the living room
And when you see the white barn
You know the journey\'s through
My dog\'s barking in the backseat
Cause he knows it too

A minorAm
The clock strikes the hour
Tonight we ride
G+G
You\'ve got three more seconds
      A minorAm
To choose sides
