Intro
C# G# A#m F#
[Verse 1]
C# G# A#m F#
Found my way down the riverside, swimming deep in the water
C# G# A#m F#
That's the place where I like to hide, when I lose my mind
C# G# A#m F#
Try to find my way to the shore, but the waves made it harder
C# G# A#m F#
So I let myself drift away, drift away
[Chorus]
C# G#
I took a float down to Mexico, oh
A#m F#
Cried myself a river, that was so long ago
C# G#
Now that I know where I have to go, oh
A#m F#
Let the wind carry me away
C# G# A#m F#
I fire words like bullets
C# G# A#m F#
I fire words like bullets
[Verse 2]
C# G# A#m F#
Then I found myself lost at sea, sent a message in a bottle
C# G# A#m F#
But the tide brought it back to me, now I'm on my own
C# G#
I put up my gun, fire my words
A#m F#
Shooting you down, I know it hurts
C# G# A#m F#
Now you know I used to feel (how I used to feel)
[Chorus]
C# G#
I took a float down to Mexico, oh
A#m F#
Cried myself a river, that was so long ago
C# G#
Now that I know where I have to go, oh
A#m F#
Let the wind carry me away
C# G# A#m F#
I fire words like bullets (now you know how I used to feel)
C# G# A#m F#
I fire words like bullets (now you know how I used to feel)
[Bridge]
C# G#
I put up my gun, fire my words
A#m F#
Shooting you down, I know it hurts
C# G#
Before it gets good, its getting worse
A#m F#
All of my scars left are with a curse
[Chorus]
C# G#
I took a float down to Mexico, oh
A#m F#
Cried myself a river, that was so long ago
C# G#
Now that I know where I have to go, oh
A#m F#
Let the wind carry me away
C# G# A#m F#
I fire words like bullets (now you know how I used to feel)
C# G# A#m F#
I fire words like bullets (now you know how I used to feel)
C# G# A#m F#
I fire words like bullets (now you know how I used to feel)
C# G# A#m F#
I fire words like bullets
