Sits in his car and stares at his gun

   F#                  
He wipes the the blood from his shirt

    G#m                  
The sweat from his brow

No one to hold no one to care

There was a time he had someone

Stands on the corner like she used to do

F#                                 G#m
She's been away awhile so she's a little afraid

         E                           B
And the judge said he didn't want to see her again

     E                        B
But she's got no money she's got no rent

    F#                  B
The money she had is already spent

        F#                      G#m
Cause a couple of weeks ago she learned her lesson

Went and brought herself a little Smith and Wesson

At a little motel down by the bay

     C#m                     E                    
But before he got there they got away

F#                            G#m
Well she was all right just a little roughed up

      E                    B      F#             
So he took her down to the coffee shop

    F#                    G#m
The report he filed said  victim unknown
