G   C Am Am7

		 G
And we couldn't sweep
     C
The ghosts out of our 
Am		Am7
one bedroom apartment
	G     C         Am
So we packed all our things
      Am7                G
Or we left them in some garage
     C		Am          Am7
And I knew two disappointed men
                G
In your fathers eyes
        C       Am  Am7
And my father arms


	       C        Am
And I knew that I could make
     C          Am
Some lame reference
 		 C  G      C
To Socrates or, or even Sartre

Am    C	        	Am
But I left the gun on my hip
     C          Am7      G
And shot right from the heart


	G       C
If you, If you curl up
    Am        F             G
And bury your face into the carpet
        C	        Am	     F
In that bedroom of that one bedroom apartment
         G     C            Am
You will see a 7 year old boy
	    F					      G
And he's screaming out screaming out screaming out

G       C                Am	
Here is your grandfathers gun
            Am7	            G
The one he used to end his time here

G		  C
Will you tell the ambulance
      Am        Am7
That I am not ready to go
G	     C         Am   Am7
Strike two, sweet chariot
       G      C         Am   Am7
Coming forth direct my home
     G          C
I am sorry you know
 Am               Am7	          G
I never meant to hurt you but I did
        C          Am
Strike two, swing low
Am7           G
Coming slowly forth
   C             Am
To carry us all home
Am7        G
But not tonight
       C	       Am
Their knocking down my door
       Am7        G
Their cutting me away
C        Am    Am7                G
One last look
