Chords

[Verse]
          E
Tell me what a young man Mama

           D           A9
What's he got to live for

  D              A9                E
Tossed in the shuffle of everyday war

   E       
Searchin' for some trouble

            D           A9
Which I'm sure he will find

  D                A9
Spend your whole life fightin' son

         D       E
Meet your dyin' time
[Chorus]
       A/G#
It's a shame

       A/G#
It's a shame

      A/G#  
The trigger be his only friend

        A
It's a shame, oh yeh

        B
But it ain't never gonna end
[Verse]
          A          E
He's a bucketful of hate

      A             E
That don't give a damn

 A        B           D       A
What fate awaits the machine gun man?

         E             A
Well, he ain't got no future

        E            A
And he ain't got no plan

           B         D         A
What fate awaits the machine gun man?

E  
I can't see tomorrow

       D         A
And I don't see today

 D         A             D          E
Trail of confusion done leadin' my way

 E
They say the only thing worth killin' Lord

D           A
Be killin' time

   D                 A
I say the only soul worth savin' now Mama

 D        E
Resavin' mine
[Chorus]
     A/G#
It's a shame

     A/G#
It's a shame

      A/G#                A/G#
The trigger be his only friend

        A/G#     A/G#
It's a shame, oh yeh

       A 
But it ain't never gonna end
[Verse]
       A            E
He's a bucketful of hate

A                  E
That don't give a damn

 A        B           D          A
What fate awaits the machine gun man?

          E          A
Well, he ain't got no future

        E            A 
And he ain't got no plan

           B            D        A
What fate awaits the machine gun man?
[Bridge]
B                         A                E
He keeps shootin' mama like any old fool would do

B                                   A                E
Lord, the life he be leadin' ain't the one he has to choose

B
As he walks on out that door

A                    E
Mama breaks down to cry

B                 D
As she waves the machien gun man

A           A       A        A
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye...
