[Intro] G C G Em C G [Verse 1]
G                                   C      G
Well hes been collecting since the age of nine

Em                      C         G
Every shiny bullet that he could find

G                               C       G
Built himself a house with the wooden floors

Em                           C         G
Put the shiny bullets in a chest of drawers
[Verse 2]
G                                 C          G
Well his wifes long gone and the kids have grown

Em                       C        G
And trees they fall down on their own

G                      C      G
Memories fade like an old slideshow

Em                                 C           G
But the bullets still shine like coins in the snow
[Verse 3]
C             G            D    Em
Well one day took himself into town

C               G           D         Em
The men with a truck well they came around

C            G               D           Em
Took the television and the gun from the war

C                  G               D        Em
And almost every bullet from the chest of drawers
[Verse 4]
G                                      C         G
Well he came back home and found the house in a mess

Em                            C          G
Run into the bedroom and the old brown chest

G                       C G
Didnt care much for the VCR

Em                                      C      G
But he cried for the space where the bullets were
[Verse 5]
C                  G          D    Em
The men drove the truck down into town

C                  G     D         Em
And sold all the silver they had found

C                            G               D           Em
But they couldnt sell the bullets cos they werent live rounds

C                   G             D             Em
So they dug a big hole put the bullets in the ground
[Instrumental] G C G Em C G C G D Em C G D Em [Verse 6]
C                         G          D Em
Now he doesnt leave the house much anymore

C                      G              D    Em
Cos the men are gonna come like they did before

C              G         D       Em
And hell hold onto the three or four

C                  G            D         Em
Bullets that they left in the chest of drawers

C                               G           D         Em
Oh yeah the bullets that they left in the chest of drawers
