There's no guitar until "And come on down . . . " but I put it down in case you wanted to play with
that part. I typically do.
[Verse 1]
G
Stop.
Am Em
Take a moment of your life
G D
to find out where you are going
G
and crawl
C G
through the barren land of your plan to the
D
beauty of not knowing
Em C
And come on down to the place where we met and I
G D
sent you that shot of whiskey
Em C G
Smoke was in your eyes and you hailed a goodbye
D
You were never with me
[Chorus]
Em C
So pull the trigger nice and fast
G D
Cause the best for me hasn't happened yet
Em
You're the Marlboro Man
C
Predictable with your plan
G
You're so damn scared
D
You don't understand that
Em C
Life is for the living
G
not the living dead
you make your bed
D
refuse to lie in it
Em C
Life is for the willing
G
You're only willing to stick to the plan
D Em C
Go buy a pack, Marlboro Man.
G D
Marlboro Man.
[Verse 2]
G
Please
Am Em
don't get down on your knees
G D
and act like you're repenting
G C
I know you know I know you better than this
G D
and I am done mending
Em C
What was meant to be a broken joke
G
get out of my house go
D
have a smoke
Em C
I'm on my way to wonderful
G D
My future is bright don't get blinded by the light
[Chorus]
Em C
So pull the trigger nice and fast
G D
Cause the best for me hasn't happened yet
Em
You're the Marlboro Man
C
predictable with your plan
G
you're so damn scared
D
you don't understand that
Em C
Life is for the living
G
not the living dead
you make your bed
D
refuse to lie in it
Em C
Life is for the willing
G
you're only willing to stick to the plan
D Em C
go buy a pack, Marlboro Man.
G D
Marlboro Man.
Em C
Ooh-ooh-ooh
G D
Marlboro Man.
[Bridge]
Em C
I counted the hours
G D
it took for you to call
Em C
and I counted those same hours
G D
leading up to the fall, mhm, mhm, mhm . . .
[Chorus]
(There's no guitar until ** but I put the chords there in case you do want to play them.)
Em C
So pull the trigger nice and fast
G D
cause the best for me hasn't happened yet
Em
You're the **Marlboro** Man
C
Predictable with your plan
G
You're so damn scared
D
you don't understand that
Em C
Life is for the living
G
not the living dead
you make your bed
D
refuse to lie in it
Em C
Life is for the willing
G
you're only willing to stick to the plan
D Em C
go buy a pack, Marlboro Man.
G D
Marlboro Man.
Em C
Ooh-ooh-ooh
G D
Marlboro Man
