        E         B            E
Another bang bang shoot 'em up movie

E         B              E
Pride and vengeance all around

        E         B           E
Another bang bang shoot em’ up movie

         C#m
Meant to blow my mind

G#
Make my heart pound

A                      E
Bridges and tempers on fire

E              G#      C#m
Please turn it off I’m tired

   A         Am                 E
Of Bang bang bang shoot 'em up movies
[Verse 1]
E                   C#m  B                  E
Have you ever had a gun pointed directly at you

E                   C#m        B           E       A
And there isn’t any doubt it’s loaded and ready to go

    C#m                 B                E             A
Well I have twice and I don’t recall any heroes on the scene

       C#m                      B                 E             A     B
Just adrenaline and fear and a few souls who have unfortunately seen
[Chorus]
         E         B            E
A lot of bang bang shoot 'em up movies

E              B             E
People putting people in the ground

E         B            E
Bang bang shoot 'em up movies

         C#m
Meant to turn my head

G#
Make my heart pound

A                       E
Fiction and commerce conspire

E              G#      C#m
Please turn it off I’m tired

   A         Am                  E
Of bang bang bang shoot 'em up movies
[Verse 2]
E             C#m               B               E
I live in the country because I love peace and quiet

E             C#m               B            E        A
But all of my neighbors have closets full of machine guns

     C#m                     B         E              A
And every Sunday they’re out there, pretending to be Rambo

    C#m           B              E               A
And I’m in here pretending like Sunday is still sacred
[Bridge]
  G#m                  C#m
Conceal and carry your fear

      A               E
Don’t need no weapons here

     G#m           C#m
I’ve had all I can stand

        A           B             B7
Of the bloodthirsty leading man
[Verse 3]
E                        C#m    B        E
If you think there isn’t any connection between

E                    C#m      B          E              A
All the violence you see in real life and what’s on the screen

        C#m    B      E          A
Well it seems painfully clear to me

             Am            B     B7
That you’re living in a fantasy
[Chorus]
        C#m       B7           E
Another bang bang shoot 'em up movie

C#m         B7            E
Living room like a battle ground

  C#m       B7           E
A bang bang shoot 'em up movie

         C#m
Meant to push the envelope

G#
Make me say 'wow'

     A                    E
If I never hear gunfire again I’ll be fine

   E              B       C#m
So please turn it off I’m tired

   A         B         E    G#m  C#m
Of bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang

A         Am
Bang bang bang
