[Intro] Em D Em D7 Em D C7 [Verse 1]
    Em                D
Say Judas came up to D.C.

          Em                    D
He'd been down in Georgia for a while

           Em      D7
He drove a 944, he bought with the soul

     Em                       D7                 Em
Of a blonde-headed kid with a left-handed guitar.

                       D           Em
Now he's lookin' for me, Citizen C-O-P-E,

         D
Sign the dotted line please

        Em             D
For the fake 50's, now Judas answer me

       Em                              D
"Since I was the age to speak, haven't you been listening?"

[Verse 2]
        Em                     D
Well he came to town found the woman that I love

        Em                 D
And he fucked her down she told him where I live

       Em                 D7
Off of 9th in the alleyway, where they say

             Em                   D7
They got the coke and the dope, until you end up broken

Em                    D7
 "You should have let the smack get you" he said

Em                                 D
 "Well now you've got to deal with me instead

        Em                     D7
I'm downstairs on the Motorola, you know

         Em                       D7
I've got 3 golden bullets and I'm shooting for your soul"

[Verse 3]
      Em                D
Well I came down with my Martin blazin'

        Em                      D
My voice, it was cutting him up, now he's aiming

    Em                     D7
His first shot grazed my eye,

       Em                       D7
I lost half of my sight, and my firstborn's life

        Em                       D
And the second shot knocked off my guitar moon

       Em                   D
And it made my guitar kinda play out of tune

      Em                         D7
But I just kept strumming, I got nothing to lose

              Em                         D7
He turned the third on himself cause the bastard knew
