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