Intro
E7 A Am E F# B E
[Verse 1]
C#m7 B Emaj7
Simple walk to the corner store
C#m7 B Emaj7
Mama never thought she would be gettin' a call from the coroner
C#m7 B
Said her son's been gunned down, been gunned down
E
"Can you come now?"
F#m7
Tears in her eyes, "Can you calm down?
E A B
Please, ma'am, can you calm down?"
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m7 B E
But it rained fire in the city that day, they say
C#m7 B
G# river of blood in the streets
E
No love in the streets
C#m7 B E
And then came silence in the city that day, they say
A
Just another one gone
B
And they tell her move on
[Chorus]
And she's stuck there, singing
E7 A
"Baby, don't you close your eyes
Am E
'Cause this could be our final time
F# B E
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye
E7 A
And I think of all you could have done
Am E
At least you'll stay forever young
F# B E
I guess you picked the perfect way to die
F# B E
Oh, I guess you picked the perfect way to die"
[Verse 2]
C#m7 B E
New job, new city, new her
C#m7 B E
Bright-eyed, you would have been proud if you knew her
C#m7 B E
Flashing lights in the mirror, pull over, pull over
F#m7 E A B
G# couple nights in detention and it's over, a whole life's over
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m7 B Emaj7
They came marching in the city that day, they say
C#m7 B
Carryin' signs in the streets
E
Cryin' eyes in the streets
C#m7 B E
But they heard nothing from the city that day, they say
A
Just another one gone
B
And the city moved on
[Chorus]
We're stuck here singing
E7 A
"Baby, don't you close your eyes
Am E
'Cause this could be our final time
F# B E
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye
E7 A
I'll think of all you coulda done
Am E
At least you'll stay forever young
F# B E
I guess you picked the perfect way to die
F# B E
Oh, I guess you picked the perfect way to die"
[Bridge]
C#m7 B
Another dream lost
E7 A
Another king and queen lost
Bm6 E B
Another broken promise they refuse to make right
C#m7 B
Oh, another night to live in fear
E7 A
Oh, another night that you're not here
Bm6 E6sus(b2) B
Another reason to get out there and fight
[Chorus]
E7 A
But I said, "Baby, don't you close your eyes
Am E
'Cause this could be our final time
F# B E
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye
E7 A
But I'll think of all you coulda done
Am E
At least you'll stay forever young
F# B E
I guess you picked the perfect way to die
F# B
Oh, I guess you picked the perfect way..."
