(intro) Em  D  C  Em 

               Em 
There's a green plaid jacket on the back of the chair 
                D 
It's like a moment frozen forever there 
                 C                                                           Em 
Mom and dad had a lot of big plans for their little man 
           D 
'...So proud.' 

Em 
Mama's gone crazy 'cause her baby's shot down 
                D 
By some teenage car chase war out of bounds 
                  C                                                             Em    D 
It was the wrong place wrong time wrong end of a gun. 

Em 
Shoot straight   - from the hip 

Gone forever in a trigger slip 
                        D 
You know, it could have been 
                                        C 
It could have been your brother. 

Em 
Shoot straight - shoot to kill 
 D 
Blame each other, blame yourselves 
C                                D                   C              Em 
God is a bullet have mercy on us everyone 

             Em 
They're gonna call me sir they'll all stop picking on me 
                 D 
Well I'm a high school grad I'm over 5 foot 3 
               C                                                       Em 
I'll get a badge and a gun and I'll join the P.D. 
            D 
They'll see 
      Em 
He didn't have to use the gun they put in his hand 
                       D 
But when the guy came at him, well he panicked and ran 
                 C                                                                       Em 
And it's thirty long years before they give him another chance 
              D 
And it's sad sad sad 

Em 
Shoot straight   - from the hip 

Gone forever in a trigger slip 
                        D 
You know, it could have been 
                                        C 
It could have been your brother. 

Em 
Shoot straight - shoot to kill 
 D 
Blame each other, blame yourselves
