Time to Get a Gun / Fred Eaglesmith
capo 2nd fret
intro
G-Am-C G-Am-C G-Am-C G-Am-C-D
[G]My neighbor's car got stole las[Am]t night right out o[C]f his driveway[G]
We heard the dogs a barkin' we n[Am]ever paid 'em any mind[C][G]
Mary says she's gonna lock the door[Am] from now on when we go away[C][G]
And I've been walkin' around this fa[Am]rm wonderin' if it's time..[C].[D]
chorus
[D]Time to get a gun th[G]at's what I've been thinkin'[Am]
I could afford [C]one if I did just a little less[D] drinkin'
Time to put somethin'[G] between me & the sun[Am]
When the talkin' is over it's[C] time to get a gun[G]
Last week a government man was there
when I walked out of my back door
He said I'm sorry to bother ya son
But it don't matter anymore
Cause even while we're talking
right here where we stand
we're making plans for a 4-lane highway
and a brand new overpass
bridge
[D]Mary says she's worried about hersel[C]f and kids
She's nev[D]er known anybody had a gun
and her daddy[C] never did
But I [D]think it should be up to me
'Cause when it's all said [C]and done
[D]Somebody's gotta walk into the night
Well I'm[C] gonna be that one[D]
