[Verse 1]
G For all of the bile G The bold talk G The venom G The hate and the lies C No one should get killed C No blood should be spilled C Charlie shouldn't have died D Em Well you can't hate the gun and love the gun that shot yer rival Bm C You can't be kind and wish hate upon a child G Everybody's gotta say C What they're needing to say G C As soon as they're needing to say it G The freedom to speak C To be a freak D And the freedom to say you hate it D And have a big ole conversation
[Chorus]
Em I heard laughing A7 I heard glee C But it coulda been you Em G It coulda been me
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
G Out in the bloodshed everyone loses G There's unforgettable scars C Out in the bloodshed permanent bruises C Shapes up who you are D Children left to wander America aimless Em With a firebrand of resent Bm Wondering who it is took my daddy C With a destiny of revenge G C G Out in the bloodshed the cycle begins C And everyone dies G C Spin the wheel, if you don't get killed D You'll wind up dead inside
[Chorus]
Em I heard laughing A7 I heard glee C But it coulda been you Em G It coulda been me
[Outro]
