Verse 1

Look at me ma, making little girls scream,
D
Like a cowboy star on the silver screen,
Am
With a hand on my heart and a gun by my side,
D Am D Am D
I've killed men, and in that I find my pride
Am D
But I don't hear no moment's silence, for all those who by my gun died
Am D
With the alias of a hero, I'd claim my freedom is my bride,
Am
But you can call me a hero call me what you will,
D
I'm devoid of moral conscience yet I love it still,
Am
My mind is twsited and I sold my soul,
D
To the devil himself. for the one cheap thrill,
Am
Of killing a man just to watch him die,
D
You can strip me down ma, no matter how hard you try...
