Chorus:
	   D#
I got the shotgun blues
  C   F   C
Shotgun blues
          C#         F#
I said I don't know what I did
                    C#
But I know I gotta move

I got the shotgun blues
Shotgun blues
I can't wait here forever
I got too much here to lose

D#
And now you're blowin' smoke
B
I think you're one big joke
G#
Me... I gotta lot ta learn
A#
And I'm still waitin' for the heads to turn

You say I walk a line
Fuck they move it every time
You walk a mile in my shoes
And then you tell me 'bout singin' the blues

A#
You get what you pay for
G#
And freedom's real high priced
A#
And while you're rippin' off children
G#
Somebody's fuckin' your wife
C#
It's never made a difference
D#
It's only how you survive

I got the shotgun blues

Chorus

An' now you ask me why,
I said, "It's do or die"
I'll stick it right in your face
and then I'll put you in your motherfuckin' place

And you, you can suck my ass
an' I think it is so low class
Me? I'm just so concerned,
I'm still waitin' for your ass to burn

Oh, you want a confrontation?
I'll give you every fuckin' chance
With your verbal masturbation, me?
I just like to dance
How's that for provocation?
I'm just making a stance

         F                C
And I'm tired of the frustation
   C#                     D#
Of living inside of your lies
         F             C
And I'm wired on indignation
   C#                    D#
I said somebody's got to die

Chorus:
I got the shotgun blues,
shotgun blues
I said, I don't know what I did,
but I know I gotta move
I got the shotgun blues,
shotgun blues
I can't wait here forever,
I got too much here to lose
I got the shotgun blues,
shotgun blues
Listen motherfucker,
you're about to pay your dues
I got the shotgun blues,
shotgun blues
If you're goin' up against me
then you know you're gonna lose

You think anyone with an I.Q. over 15
Would believe your shit, fuckhead?
Nothing but a fucking pussy
