G/B                       C       Bm/D
Like a corn in a field I cut you down
C/E                         F9
I threw the last punch too hard
      G/B
After years of going steady,
        E9
well I thought that it was time
    Am7                               D
To throw in my hand for a new set of cards
G/B
And I can't take you dancing
C7          Bm/D
out on the weekend
C/E
I figured we'd painted too much
         F9
of this town
       G/B
And I tried not to look
                   E9
as I walked to my wagon
       Am7             D
And I knew then I had lost what
D/D#              Em7  A
should have been found
Am7                D
I knew then I had lost what
                  C    G
should have been found

Chorus:
Fm7               A#
And I feel like a bullet in the gun
    D#     C7
of Robert Ford
     C#           D#
I'm low as a paid assassin is
             G#        Cm/G   Fm   D#
You know I'm cold as a hired sword
       Dm7-5                  G#/D#
I'm so ashamed can't we patch it up
         C#                         C#/C
You know I can't think straight no more
    A#m7
You make me feel like a bullet honey
       A#m7/D#           C# G#
in the gun of Robert Ford

Like a child when his toy's been stepped on
That's how it all seemed to me
I burst the bubble that both of us lived in
And I'm damned if I'll ever
get rid of this guilt that I feel
And if looks could kill then I'd be a dead man
Your friends and mine don't call no more
Hell, I thought it was best but now I feel branded
Breaking up's sometimes like breaking the law
Breaking up's sometimes like breaking the law

Chorus - x2
