Chords
Written by Sonny Bono and released by Cher, his wife at the time, in 1966.
There are no chords in the bridge so I have 'improvised', I play 4 power chord stabs on
the 4 drum beats before each phrase which sounds ok(ish). I think the rest is fine but any
suggestions, corrections or comments will be more than welcome.

Gm Cm D7 Gm
[Verse 1]
Gm Gm I was five and he was six, we rode on horses made of sticks F D He wore black and I wore white, he would always win the fight Gm Gm Bang bang, he shot me down, bang bang, I hit the ground F D7 Gm Bang bang, that awful sound, bang bang, my baby shot me down

Gm Gm Seasons came and changed the time, and I grew up, I called him mine F D He would always laugh and say, remember when we used to play Gm Gm Bang bang, I shot you down, bang bang, you hit the ground F D Gm Bang bang, that awful sound, bang bang, I used to shoot you down

Gm Gm Now he's gone I don t know why, until this day, sometimes I cry F D He didn't even say goodbye, he didn't take the time to lie Gm Gm Bang bang, he shot me down, bang bang, I hit the ground F D Gm Bang bang, that awful sound, bang bang, my baby shot me down
