INTRO: GTR1 plays FIG.1
VERSE1: GTR1 plays FIG.1
And from a tiny river town you came.
With momma's rockstar dreams in tow and daddy's brains.
But the rats they fought you, oh yeah, tooth and nail.
With the way they rig this game, you had to fail.
C(let ring)
But that's all behind you now boy
VERSE2: GTR1 plays FIG.1, GTR2 plays FIG.2
And from a tiny river town you came.
With nothin' up your sleeve but a dirty forearm and an ace.
They drug you through that slaughterhouse at will.
C(let ring)
You were the soldier without a kill.
Bb(w/dist.)
You were the soldier without a kill.
