Great Song. The first verse and first chorus are usually picked. But you may pick
or strum anywhere in the song and it can sound good.
Verse 1
[G] Drop the bottle to the [D/F#]floor
I can't live like this no [Em]more.
Tired of wondering, what [C]might have been
and [D]who I still could be.
[G] Let the gun fall from my [D/F#]hand
shattered glass I'll make a [Em]stand
Time don't care about [C]no one.
Chorus
[D]I tried to [G]be
[D/F#]Butch Cassi[Em]dy,
But I[C] couldn't shoot the bullets
[D] I couldn't take the pain.
I had the [G]chance to [D/F#]ride with Sun[Em]dance,
But I[C] couldn't bare the thought of you a[D]lone, so I'm coming[G] home.
Verse 2
[G] Locked the door and lost the [D/F#]key,
you fell out of love with [Em]me.
I can't blame you for [C]moving on and [D]never looking back.
[G] Now I'm trying to make a[D/F#]mends, and come to terms with how this [Em]ends.
What I'd give to [C]do it all again.
Chorus
[D]I tried to [G]be
[D/F#]Butch Cassi[Em]dy,
But I[C] couldn't shoot the bullets
[D] I couldn't take the pain.
I had the [G]chance to [D/F#]ride with Sun[Em]dance,
But I[C] couldn't bare the thought of you a[D]lone, so I'm coming home.
Bridge
[Em] Leaving [D/F#]everything be[C]hind me
All the [Am]lies and all the reckless roads I've[D] paved.
[Em] It might [D/F#]take a while to [C]find me,
but [Am]when I do, I know that I've been[D] saved.
Verse 3
[G] I watched my life go up in [D/F#]flames
Wondering if I've got a [Em]name.
You remember [C]who I was or [D]who I'm supposed to be?
[G] Bet it all on one last [D/F#]card.
Those old habits stayed at [Em]home.
Win it all or [C]lose it all.
Chorus
[D]I tried to [G]be
[D/F#]Butch Cassi[Em]dy,
But I[C] couldn't shoot the bullets,
I[D] couldn't take the pain.
I had the [G]chance to ride with Sun[Em]dance,
But I[C] couldn't bare the thought of you a[D]lone...
Outro
[-----]
No, I just[C] couldn't bare the thought of you a[D]lone.
No I[C] couldn't bare the thought of you a[D]lone,
So I'm coming h[G]ome.[D/F#][Em][C]
I'm coming h[G]ome.[D/F#][Em][C]
I'm c[D]oming [G]home.
Enjoy!
