Verse
C# A#m
All I wanna do is shoot guns
C# A#m
Throw me in jail or a cemetery
G# F#
I got money for commissary
C# A#m
All I need is that, "Oh, he died too young"
C# A#m
'Cause I don’t smile when I'm not high
G# F#
And I keep smiling all the time
[Pre-Chorus]
C# A#m G#
If I have to die someday, let it be gunfire
F# C# A#m
And I will go 'til I run tired
G# F#
And toast to that and raise this blunt higher
C#
But lord, don’t you let me die
C# A#m
No, not in an easy way
[Chorus]
C# A#m
Let me go out like a youngster
G# F#
Taking drugs, that's how we escape
C#
Let it be gunshots or plane crashes
A#m G# F#
Just when I thought it was a safe passage
C# A#m G#
Or let me go out in flames or a straight jacket
F# A#m
But Lord, don't let me go the easy way
G# F# C#
Oh, not in an easy way
[Verse 2]
C# A#m
My life fits on digital scales
C# A#m G# F#
Convictions so violent, they know nothing about physical selves
C# A#m G#
But if I slip up I already got two strikes
C# A#m
See my face out on the news
G# F#
Dodgin' bullets and blue lights
[Pre-Chorus]
C# A#m
If I have to die someday, let it be gunfire
C# A#m
And I will try to sit upright
G# F#
And blow my smoke at the sunlight
C#
But Lord, don't you let me die
A#m G#
No, not in a simple way
[Chorus]
C# A#m
Let me go out like the gangsters
G# F#
Kill and be killed in a single day
C# A#m
Let it be gunshots or plane crashes
G# F#
Just when I thought it was a safe passage
C# A#m G#
Or let me go out in flames or a straight jacket
F# A#m
But Lord, don't let me go the simple way
G# F# C#
Oh, not in a simple way
[Outro]
C# A#m
All I wanna do is shoot guns
C# A#m
Throw me in jail or a cemetery
G# F# C#
I got money for commissary, yeah
