Verse 1:
[G] It ain't the [D] gun
It's the [Am] man behind the trigger
Gets [Cm] blood on his fingers
And [G] runs
It ain't the [D] lie
It's the [Am] way that
the truth is denied [Cm]
Pre-chorus:
But [Cm] if there is one
thing that I'm guilty of
It's [D] loving and giving
when you take too much
If [F] somebody asked how we died
[D] Please look them straight in the eye
Chorus:
Call it [G] suicide [D]
Don't [Am] fabricate
Just [Cm] tell them babe
It was [G] suicide [D]
Don't [Am] sugarcoat it
Just [Cm] let them know
Verse 2:
[G] It ain't the [D] knife
It's the [Am] way that you use it
[Cm] How you abuse it in fights [G]
It ain't about the life [D]
You [Am] feel you were given
As [Cm] long as you're living it right
Pre-chorus:
But [Cm] if there is one
thing that I'm guilty of
It's [D] loving and giving
when you take too much
If [F] somebody asked how we died
[D] Oh, you look them straight in the eye
Chorus:
Call it [G] suicide [D]
Don't [Am] fabricate
Just [Cm] tell them babe
It was [G] suicide [D]
Don't [Am] sugarcoat it
Just [Cm] let them know
(Bridge)
You've been [F] killing me softly
And finally the pain
is too much [G]
And I'm all [F] out of whisky
To soak up the damage
you've done [Cm]
If there's [Bb] anything I'm guilty of
It's loving you too much
If [D] anybody asks how we died
Chorus 2:
Call it [G] suicide [D]
Don't [Am] fabricate
Just [Cm] tell them babe
It was [G] suicide [D]
Don't [Am] sugarcoat it
Just [Cm] let them know
[G] [D] Oh baby [Am]
[Cm] Just let them know
Just...
