G# An old sentimental night Fm you roll me at your sides D# Cm you shot me down G# Though I had no enemy here Fm you get me very near and D# shoot me down Cm shoot me down G# your hands they flutter up Gm Armed and dangerous my buttercup D# Cm and shoot me down. A# in flames Stand back, baby, stand back and let me breathe I think I'm falling out of here I can hear the grass grow I can hear the melting snow I can feel your breath against my ear I might just disappear Yeah, wouldn't that be nice? Yeah, wouldn't that be nice? Well, wouldn't that be nice? I look into your eyes And it comes as no great surprise You're gonna shoot me down Shoot me down I know that when you smile It'll only be just a short little while Shoot me down In flames Shoot me down In flames Shoot me down In flames You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  Cm  D#  Fm  Gm  G#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
