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