Em
I knew a man with a son
bought him a gun
Am G
he learned shorty just how to use it
Em
taught him huntin' and skinin'
right from the beginin'
Am G
built himself a mighty fine killer (killer)
Em
but shorty got picked on
beat on and kicked on
Am G
and all his classmates wanted to punk him
Em
so with tears in his eye
and the catcher in the rye
Am G
and he told his old man he went huntin' (huntin')
Em
he never felt so free
like his destiny
Am G
lay somewhere out on the horizon
Em
it's hard when you're cold
he felt a hundred years old
Am& G&
and started pulling back on the trigger
Chorus:
Gtr. 1 & Gtr. 2

How could such a short time feel so long?

How could such a young life go so wrong?

Em
See me hear me
Am G

Em Am
cuz I'm clearly... cuz I'm seriously distrubed
G

Em*
don't wake my mother
just wake my brother
Am G
cuz i found another who want to play sucker
Em
and I ain't the one
who put shade in your sun
Am G
and took all your shine... watch me get mine
Em*
feel how it burns
to pay for my sins
Am
watch the world turn
G
inside the beginin'
Em
losses and wins
angels and demons
Am G
dancin' on top of the head of a pin
Em
don't know where I'm goin'
but I know where I been
Am G
Can't hear a sound, clap me for pound
Em
I came to get down
I came to get dirty
Am& G&
I came to get even (even, even even)
