       Guns & Guitars








Tuning: E A D G B E

[Intro]
E G A E B E
 
E                 A
Dad was a lawyer, Mom a music teacher
  E                               B
I guess that explains things a lot.
  E                            A
I learned from his cases, her trebles and basses
F#                       B
best education I ever got.
E                          A
I chased down a thief when I was 14,
E                         B
same year I got my first acoustic.
       E                  A
Served papers in college, gainin’ street knowledge
     F#                                 B
then goin’ out and playin’ country music.
 
[CHORUS]
A
And it was guns & guitars, courtrooms & bars 
E                                   E F# G G#
back and forth from one life to another.
A
Guns & guitars, sometimes it’s in the stars 
B                            B C B
blame it on my father and my mother.
 
[8-bar instrumental break]
E G A E B E A B E
 
         E                      A
I was an agent for the State, a P.I. for a rate 
E                       B
workin’ all across Oklahoma.
                 E                         A
But I found the Texas Music scene, hangin’ out with Pat Green,
      F#                              B
and I felt like I woke up from a coma.
E                               A
And I went back to OKC, wanted everyone to see
        E                       B
there’s music that the radio is missin’.
   E                        A
So much for law and order – now it’s all over,
      F#                           B
I’m a no-account Red Dirt musician.
 
REPEAT CHORUS
A
And it was guns & guitars, courtrooms & bars 
E                                   E F# G G#
back and forth from one life to another.
A
Guns & guitars, sometimes it’s in the stars 
B                             B C C# D D# E
blame it on my father and my mother.
 
[5-bar instrumental ending]
E G A E B    A E B E
