Dm  E  Gm  Es   2x

Dm
My 16 locked and loaded
All fear has been avoided
Gm
You say the words and my weapon is drawn
Dm
This one could be my last time
Some people call it war crime
Gm                                   Es
I may be staring out of either side 

Dm                         Gm
Nothing shocks you like a  bullet hole
                       Es
Leaving my fear on the  danger line
Dm                      Gm
Suffering a man should  never know
                        Es
Leaving my faith on the  danger line

Dm  E  Gm  Es

Dm
I do this for my family
My daughter loves her daddy
Gm
Too many talk down on things they don't know
Dm
With colors never faded
Reckless and unavaded
Gm                                            Es
They may take me but they won't take us all. 

Dm                         Gm
Nothing shocks you like a  bullet hole
                       Es
Leaving my fear on the  danger line
Dm                      Gm
Suffering a man should  never know
                        Es
Leaving my faith on the  danger line

Dm                  B
I know what you're  thinking
     F           C
I've  been there  before
B                F
So think of the  times
    C                       Dm
The time we spent laughing  away
B                F
So think of the  times
    A
And  hope

B                            F
Now I find myself in my own  blood
    C                          Dm
The damage done is far beyond  repair
B                           F
I never put my faith in up  above
    A
But now I'm hoping someone's there

B                                  F
I never meant to leave this world  alone
  C                                 Dm
I never meant to hurt the ones who  cared
    B                                       F
And all this time I thought we'd just grow  old
    A
You know, no one said its fair
B                           F
Tell my baby girl that its  alright
     C                  Dm
I've sung my last song  today
          B
We're not  alone
                 F             A
Don't leave this  light on for  me
I'm free

B  F  C  Dm  B  F  (4x)
