Woah oh oh, ayy ee yay

Verse 1:
F#m
Me and Danny Lord and Steve
              C#m
Were fuckin' drunk on New Year's Eve
         F#m
Singin,' drinkin,' playin' guitars

Layin' 'round
               D
We pulled the shotgun out the shed and
 Riff 1                F#m
Fired it towards the heavens
               C#m        F#m
Stray bullets rainin' on down

Down, down, down
 D            C#m        F#m
Stray bullets rainin' on down

Verse 2:
 F#m
Back of an Ace uncovered truck
              C#m
The captain laughed and said, "Good luck"
        F#m
As we rolled on through

Our first Iraqi town
          D
From the rooftop we got blasted
        Riff 1             F#m
Danny Lord's spine came unfastened
               C#m        F#m
Stray bullets rainin' on down

Verse 3:
F#m
Fifteen months lost in Iraq
              C#m
We got stop-lossed, they sent us back
         F#m
Why the fuck we're even here I'll never know
         D
Me and Steve, we went out walkin'
          Riff 1         F#m
A few of us have started talkin'
                    C#m            F#m
And now we've got a mission of our own

Chorus:

Woah oh oh, ayy ee yay

I I I sail away
        F#m
Woah oh oh, ayy ee yay

Slide on down
         D
Woah oh oh, ayy ee yay
         Riff 1
What is lost
          F#m
You gave away

Stray bullets rainin' on
       Bm    C#m
Down, down, down
 D            C#m        F#m
Stray bullets rainin' on down

Verse 4:
 F#m
'Cause now we're comin' for the captain
   C#m
To reap the seeds he's sewn
     F#m
Everybody hit the deck

'Cause his tent's about to blow
          D
Tell the general when we find him
       Riff 1        F#m
He'll be the next to go
                             C#m
Yeah, we're coming for the captain
                     F#m
And then we're going home
