Verse 1:
E MajorE
It was the perfect excuse to get drunk
   A augmentedA
As if lately I've needed one
      BB
It was the perfect excuse to buy bullets
    A augmentedA      BB    E MajorE
For the barrel of my favorite gun
             E7E7
It was the perfect way to show you
    A augmentedA
How it feels inside of me
    BB
And the perfect way to find out
    A augmentedA    BB   E MajorE   A augmentedA BB
How it feels to set me free
