A Shot Across The Bow

Key: A

Introduction:

 A2 
It's time I said this
                                                                                                   F#m 
But I'm so choked up and I need my sanity
               D2                                                               E                                                         A2 
I'm scared, believe me, you can see me smile if you let me just stick around.
 A2 
Well this is bye-bye baby
                                                                           F#m 
It isn't like a sudden stop on a freight train
           D2                                                             E                                                         A2 
If you're not happy and you hurt this much, then let me just stick around.
                                     D2                                                                                   E 
But can I have one second of your time?
                                                                               D2 
If I don't it'll drive me crazy.
                                                                                                         E 
As I drop to my knees and scream,
I hate you more than you could know.
 A2 
I hope you fall into the ocean
 E                                                                                                   E/F                                                               F#m 
And the current leaves you helpless, swimming around
                                                                             E                         D2                           E 
As the waves crash over you until you drown.
(And fall away..)
 A2 
And hold a funeral for nothing
 E                                                                                       E/F                                                             F#m 
And celebrate how empty love can be broken
                                             E                                           D2                                 E                                     A2 
It takes the sea to put you six feet happily underground
 A2 
Now it's back to reality
                                                                                             F#m 
I'm up in shambles but I guess that's how I should be
                                                                                                                     D2                                                             E 
I knew the wedding bells were ringing well, but my bride was missing.
                                                                           A2 
It's not supposed to hurt this much
                                                                                                       F#m 
But when someone slowly breaks it off
                                                                                         D2                                                     E                                   A2 
It tends to leave a bitter taste, a scar, that slowly rips apart.
                               D2                                                                                 E 
Could I have one second of your time?
                                                                               D2 
If I don't, it'll drive me crazy.
                                                                                                         E 
As I drop to my knees and scream,
I hate you more than you could know.
 A2 
I hope you fall into the ocean
 E                                                                                                   E/F                                                               F#m 
And the current leaves you helpless, swimming around
                                                                             E                         D2                           E 
As the waves crash over you until you drown.
(And fall away..)
 A2 
And hold a funeral for nothing
 E                                                                                       E/F                                                             F#m 
And celebrate how empty love can be broken
                                             E                                           D2                                 E                                     A2 
It takes the sea to put you six feet happily underground

                               F#m       D2 
Underground..
 F#m 
I've had enough, but it's all for the best.
 E 
I need to get a few things off my chest.
 C#m 
There's got to be another way I can say it,
                       D2                                 E 
But to get it right, I have to think straight.
 F#m 
Hope he tastes like the way I used to taste.
 E                                                                                                                                   C#m 
I can't believe I'd even say this to you now.
                           D2                           E                     A2 
When you won't listen at all.
 A2 
I hope you fall into the ocean
 E                                                                                                   E/F                                                               F#m 
And the current leaves you helpless, swimming around
                                                                             E                                         D2                           E 
As the waves crash over you and over you until you drown.
 A2 
And hold a funeral for nothing
 E                                                                                       E/F                                                             F#m 
And celebrate how empty love can be broken
                                             E                                           D2                                 E 
It takes the sea to put you six feet happily underground
 F#m                         E                                             D2                               Dm                                 A2 
It takes the sea to put you six feet happily underground.
