G Cadd9 G F# Em7 Cadd9 G x2
G Cadd9 G F#
Oh Well he’s been collecting since the age of nine
Em7 Cadd9 G
Every shiny bullet that he could find
G Cadd9 G F#
Built himself a house with the wooden floors
Em7 Cadd9 G
Put the shiny bullets in a chest of drawers
G Cadd9 G
Well his wifes long gone and the kids have grown
F# Em7 Cadd9 G
And trees they fall down on their own
G Cadd9 G
Memories fade like an old slideshow
F# Em7 Cadd9 G
But the bullets still shine like coins in the snow
C G D Em
Well one day took himself into town
C G D Em
The men with a truck well they came around
C G D Em
They took the television and the gun from the war
C G D G
Oh and almost every bullet from the chest of drawers
G Cadd9 G F# Em7 Cadd9 G
Oh Oh Oh----Oh
G Cadd9 G F#
Well he came back home and found the house in a mess
Em7 Cadd9 G
Run into the bedroom and the old brown chest
G Cadd9 G
Well he didn’t care much for the V – C - R
F# Em7 Cadd9 G
But he cried for the space where the bullets were
C G D Em
Well the men took the truck down into town
C G D Em
And they sold all the silver they had found
C G D Em
But they couldn’t sell the bullets cos they weren’t live rounds
C G D G
So they dug a big hole put the bullets in the ground
G Cadd9 G F# Em7 Cadd9 G
Oh Oh Oh-----Oh
C G D Em Em C G D G
C G D Em
Well he doesn’t leave the house much anymore
C G D Em
Cos the men are gonna come like they did before
C G D Em
And he’ll hold onto the three or four
C G D Em
Bullets that they left in the chest of drawers
C G D G
yeah the bullets that they left in the chest of drawers
