Intro | C | C |


C                               F       C
I overheard 'em talkin' as they laid me out
                                       C
Right there on the table at the factory
                                    F         C
I couldn't wait to see what all the fuss was 'bout
                            C
My edition, it was limited, apparently


     C                              F       C
They took me out back, they said to test me
                       Am            G      C
Didn't really care for whatever they fed me
                                  F     C
All I know is, next thing, I felt empty
  
And couldn't hear a thing


                   F
* I could'a been a railroad spike
                 C
I could'a been a little kid's bike
               F
I could'a been somethin' real nice
                         C
With my white pearls and silver
                   Dm      F
But they gave me a trigger
              C
And made me a killer


C                  Am            G       C
They stuck me on a shelf at some mom and pop's
                Dm          G         C
In between some medals from World War II
                   Am          G     C
Wasn't twenty-four hours 'fore I got bought
                     Am           G
And ended up in some safe in some livin' room


C                      Am     G         C
I was sleepin' when my handle felt that hand
                     Am            G        C
I freaked out when I looked up and saw that kid
                              Am      G      C
He pulled me out and tried to show me to his friend
                     Am          C
Oh, I wasn't made to miss, thank God he did


                   F
* I could'a been a railroad spike
                 C
I could'a been a little kid's bike
               F
I could'a been somethin' real nice
                         C
With my white pearls and silver
                   Dm      F
But they gave me a trigger
              C
And made me a killer


      F
Oh, I hated myself and the stories I'd heard
        Am             G
From a .30-06, swore I must'a been cursed
         F
Till the devil broke in with a knife one night
      Am                 G
And I knew right then it was my time


                   F
* I could'a been a railroad spike
                 C
I could'a been a little kid's bike
               F
I could'a been somethin' real nice
                         C      G
With my white pearls and silver
                   Dm     F
But they gave me a trigger
              C
And made me a killer


                   Dm      F
Oh, they gave me a trigger
  
And made me a killer
