[A] [F#m] [F#]
[Bm] [G]
[A] [F#m] [F#]
[Bm] Do you still say your prayers, little darling?
[G] Do you go to bed at night?
[A] Praying that tomorrow, [F#m] everything [F#] will be all right.
[Bm] But tomorrow's falling number, [G] and number one by one.
[A] You wake up and you're dying.
[F#m] You don't even [F#] know what's wrong.
[Bm] Well, they shot you point blank.
[G] You've been shot in the back, [A] baby, point blank.
[F#m] You're a fool this [F#] time, little girl, [Bm] that's a fact.
[A] [G] Right between the eyes, [A] baby, point blank.
[F#m] Right [F#] between the pretty lies [Bm] that they did.
[D] [G]
Who [A] could've said?
[F#m] [F#]
[D] [Bm] You grew up where young girls, they grow up fast.
[G] You took what you were handed and left behind what was [A] asked.
But what they asked, baby, wasn't right.
[F#m] You didn't [F#] have to live that life.
[Bm] When I was gonna be your Romeo, you were gonna be my Juliet.
[G] These days, you don't wait on Romeos, you wait on that welfare [A] check.
And on all the pretty little things that you can't [F#m] ever have.
And on all the [F#] promises that [Bm] always end up point blank.
[G] Shot between the eyes, [A] oh, point blank.
[F#m] Like the white [F#] lies you tell to [Bm] Issa Blank.
[G] You're walking in the sights, [A] girl, point blank.
[F#m] And it's one false [F#] move, and baby, the lights [Bm] go out.
[G]
[A] [F#m] [Bm] [F#]
[C#] [Bm] Once I dreamed we were together again.
[G] Baby, you and me, [A] back home in those old clubs.
[F#m] The way [F#] we used to be.
[Bm] We were standing at the bar and it was hard to hear.
[G] The band was playing loud and you were shouting something in my [D] ear.
[A] You pulled my jacket off and as the drummer counted four.
You [F#m] grabbed my hand [F#] and pulled me out on the floor.
You [Bm] stood there and held me and you started dancing [G] slow.
And as I pulled you tighter, I swore I'd never let you go.
[A] Well, I saw you last night down the avenue.
[F#m] Your face was in [F#] the shadows, but I knew that it was [Bm] you.
You were standing at the doorway out of the [G] rain.
You didn't answer when I called out your name.
[A] You just turned and then you looked away.
[F#m] But just another [F#] stranger [Bm] waiting to get thrown away, point blank.
[G] Right between the eyes, [A] ooh, point blank.
[F#m] Right between [F#] the pretty lies, you [Bm] fell, point blank.
[G] And a shot straight through the heart, [A] yeah, point blank.
[F#m] You're twisted up to become just another [Bm] part of it, point blank.
[G] You're walking in the sights, [A] point blank.
[F#m] You're living one false [F#] move, just one false [Bm] move away, point blank.
[G] Caught in their sights, [A] point blank.
[F#m] Forget our [F#] love, girl, you [Bm] forget our fight.
[D] [G] They must've shot you in the head, [A] just point blank, [F#m] [F#] bang, [G] bang, baby.
