PASS ME THE GUN

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BY GRAHAM HOLLY

WELL I WOKE UP THIS MORNING EVERYTHING SEEMED OK

BUT A VOICE IN MY HEAD SEEMED TO TAKE ALL THAT AWAY

HE SAID NICE KNOWING YOU ITS TIME TO HAVE SOME FUN

NO MORE MR NICE GUY NOW PASS ME THE GUN

WELL I STUMBLED THROUGH THE HALLWAY BUT HE WOULDN’T LET ME REST

HE WAS DARING ME IF I WOULD ONLY PUT HIM TO THE TEST

I KNEW THAT I WAS WEAKENING WHEN HE SPOKE OF WHAT THEY’D DONE

IF YOU WANT YOUR TROUBLES OVER THEN JUST PASS ME THE GUN

(SOLO BASED ON VERSE)

(CHORUS) PASS ME THE GUN IT’S TIME TO EVEN THE SCORE

YOU PEOPLE SEEM TO LAUGH AT ME NOW YOUR GONNA LAUGH NO MORE

HERE COMES A BULLET I’VE RUN OUT OF THINGS TO SAY

BROTHER I’VE GOT NEWS FOR YOU MY MIDDLE NAME IS JUDGEMENT DAY

WELL I PUT ON MY JACKET BUT IT DIDN’T FEEL TOO LIGHT

LOOKED IN MY MIDDLE POCKET AND I FOUND THAT I WAS RIGHT

IT WAS A LOADED 45 THAT GLISTENED IN THE SUN

HEARD THE SAME OLD VOICE AND IT SAID PASS ME THE GUN

SO I WENT DOWN TO MY LOCAL WHERE THE BARMAN HATES MY NAME

PUT ON SOME ROCKABILLY STARTED DANCING WITH A DAME

A DOZEN GUYS CAME UP AND I PULLED OUT MY 45

I SAID WHICH ONE OF YOU LOW DOWN SQUARES WOULD LIKE TO COME AND JIVE

(SOLO BASED ON VERSE)

CHORUS

WELL I WAS FIRING ALL AROUND ME AND ALL HELL WAS BREAKING LOOSE

JUST THEN I HEARD THE COPS ARRIVE JUST AS I CALLED A TRUCE

A DOZEN BULLETS HIT ME AND I KNEW THAT I WAS DONE

WOKE UP IN MY BEDROOM SCREAMING PASS ME THE GUN

PASS ME THE GUN (REPEAT THREE TIMES)
