GCGE GCGDG G C G In his place there grew an angry festered wound Em Filled with hatred and remorse G C G Where I'd pick and scratch till the blood it matched D G The silent rage now that fills my lungs C G For there are many ways to kill a man they say Em With bayonette, axe, or sword G C G But son a bullet fired from a shapeless guise D G Leaves but the shell of a Thompson gun.
