As recorded by Skid Row (From the 1989 Album SKID ROW) [Intro] G5 F5 [Verse 1]
          G5
She was a ballerina on a subway train

G5
Stiletto heels and a candy cane

G5
Looked like a number on a station wall

                     F5      G5
Hot on the tail of a social call

A5
I wet my lips I thought I had it made

A5
Like Valentino with a hand grenade

A5
I made my move with my libido on

C5                            D5
She circled once and then she dropped the bomb
[Chorus]
            A5   C5   G5
She got the big guns, pointed at my heart

A5        G5       D5            G5
Bang-bang shooting like a firing squad

A5        G5
Big guns, she blew me away

                   D5     E5
And I went down in flames
[Interlude] A5 G5 [Verse 2]
        A5
I met a sidewalk preacher on a roller skate

A5
He said he had the key to Heaven's gate

A5
I'll wait for the movie 'cause I been there before

    C5                                D5
And learned that like is a battle and love is war
[Chorus]
            A5   C5   G5
She got the big guns, pointed at my heart

A5        D5
Bang-bang shooting like a firing squad

A5   C5   G5
Big guns, took me by surprise

A5         G5     D5
She got my lovin' reachin' for the sky

            A5   C5   G5
She got the big guns, pointed at my heart

A5        D5
Bang-bang shooting like a firing squad

A5   C5   G5
Big guns, she blew me away

                   D5
And I went down in flames
[Guitar Solo] A5 D5 A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 [Bridge]
C5                  G5            A5
I'm doing time as a backseat Romeo

C5                     G5
Play solitaire with my hands in the air

B5
Another night and no bullets to spare
[Interlude] A5 C5 G5 A5 G5 D5 A5 C5 G5 A5 G5 D5 [Chorus]
            A5   C5   G5
She got the big guns, pointed at my heart

A5        D5
Bang-bang shooting like a firing squad

A5   C5   G5
Big guns, took me by surprise

A5         G5     D5
She got my lovin' reachin' for the sky

            A5   C5   G5
She got the big guns, pointed at my heart

A5        D5
Bang-bang shooting like a firing squad

A5   C5   G5
Big guns, she blew me away

           A5          G5      D5
And I went down, down, down in flames

A5    C5 G5 A5    D5
Big guns,   big guns,

C5          A5  C5 G5
Like a big, big gun

A5    G5      D5
Big guns, she blew me away

A5
Big guns, big guns, she really really got the big guns

G5                      A5      D5      C5 G5 A5
She shot me, and I went down in flames
