C                                     Am7
All I ever had to say about love is a sad song
C                                    Am7
I get off on telling everybody what went wrong
             F                        Am7
It makes me feel like the pain had a purpose
            F                      G
Keeps me believing that maybe its worth it

Truth is, all I really want is somebody who wants me
Somebody I can count on who won't disappoint me
At first, it seems easy, I vow not to give up
Let 'em debase me while keepin' my chin up

Chorus:
       C                          Am7       F
'Cause I got the trigger, but you hold the gun
C                          Am7    F
How come you never put the safety on?
C                          Am7       F
I got the trigger, but you hold the gun
C                          Am7    F
How come you never put the safety on?

So, what do people sing about once they
finally found it?
Take it for granted, think of how they
were better without it?
I'd like to imagine I'd never be like that
But if I'm honest, I know I already have

Chorus

I got the trigger, but you own the gun
How come you never put the safety on?
Yeah, I got the trigger, but you hold the gun
How come you never put the safety on?
