This is not the first song I've tabbed but the first one I've submitted.
Rock on!
VERSE 1
G D G
Strange man walks in holding his gun
F
Kills somebody and he’s on the run
C D G
Out the door and into the busy streets
G
Cops chase him around town for an hour or two
F Am
Go back home he’s on the evening news
C D G D
They tell us it’s alright, they’ve got him in custody
G
Well maybe it’s me but I’m scratching my head
F
Wondering why that s.o.b. aint dead
C D G D
When everyone knows it’s him why should we wait?
CHORUS
G D
It’s time we go back to hanging them high
Am C
Let’s light the torches in the middle of the night
G Am C D
Somewhere along the way we’ve gotten WAY TOO SOFT
G D
We don’t need a jury when we’ve seen what he’s done
Am C
Just build the gallows and wait for the sun
G D Am
Get the vigilantes loaded up with justice for all
D G (v1 C D) (v2 D C G D C)
IF THIS COUNTRY STILL HAD BALLS
VERSE 2
G
My tax money pays for nice hot meals
F
For a killer locked up making more appeals
C D G D
So he can get right back out and do it all again
G D G
Now I aint saying that a man cant change
F
But you cant tell right from wrong these days
C D G C D
Unless we send a message they wont forget!
BRIDGE
G D C D
And I know every man can be redeemed
G D G C D
But if he don’t choose to we better still have plan B
