Staring Down The Barrel

Capo 2

[Intro]
Em  C

[Verse 1]
Em                                        C
I tell myself that I just don't need this anymore
Em                        C
But I don't know if I can resist
Em                                                    C
Cause I don't know when to stop, never know when it's time
Em                                                 C
So don't wake me up now cause I'm almost out of my mind
Em                                  C
Tell me what you want to get out of this
Em                                 C
Maybe all I ever needed was just a fix
Em                                                   C
I wanna see what they got, I wanna see what they can find
Em                                  G            D
So don't wake me up now, cause I'm almost out my mind

[Chorus]
Em               G            C
Staring down the barrel of a gun tonight
Em             G              C
When it's all done what will you decide
Em            G       C
You'll never get any sleep tonight
Em
Staring at the gun
Em
Staring at the gun
Em
Staring at the gun tonight

[Verse 2]
Em                                  C
Don't go turning the lights down on me
Em                                              C
Cause I don't want to have to face what I can't see
Em                                               C
Don't wanna see what I'm not, don't wanna see my state of mind
Em                               G                  D
Somebody wake me up now, help me get down off this ride

[Chorus]
Em               G            C
Staring down the barrel of a gun tonight
Em             G              C
When it's all done what will you decide
Em            G       C
You'll never get any sleep tonight
Em             G      C
Staring at the gun tonight
Em               G            C
Staring down the barrel of a gun tonight
Em      G             C
Got my ticket on this one way ride
Em              G             C
Waiting for the end of the world to arrive
Em
Staring at the gun
Em
Staring at the gun
Em
Staring at the gun tonight

[Bridge]
        Am
With a fire in your head
    Am/G
You lie on your bed
Am/F#                             F
Wishing you were anywhere else instead
        Am
Draw a line in the sand
             Am/G
You played your last hand
       Am/F#                       F
You jumped before you learn how to land

[Verse 3]
Em                                 C
Now I feel my heart begin to race
Em                              C
And I see myself from up above
Em                                           C
My thoughts keep heading to a darker place
Em                              G      D
A place where there is no love,   No love
Em               G            C
Staring down the barrel of a gun tonight
Em               G            C

[Fill]
Em               G            C
Staring down the barrel of a gun tonight
Em             G        C (x2)

[Chorus/Outro]
           Em               G           C
Yeah, I'm staring down the barrel of a gun tonight
Em      G             C
Got my ticket on this one way ride
Em              G             C
Waiting for the end of the world to arrive
Em              G     C
Staring at the gun tonight
Em              G     C
Staring at the gun tonight
Em              G     C
Staring at the gun tonight
Em
