I screwed it up pretty good, though (actually I confused some related chords) so here's a corrected version. /Don wegeng.henr801c@xerox.com =================== cut here ========================= Title: Gun Shy Subtitle: 10,000 Maniacs Subtitle: (acoustic version from the "You Happy Puppet" CD Single) Subtitle: Version 2 G G G G Am G D D

^GI always knew that you would Take yourself far from home As ^Amsoon as, as ^Gfar as You could go^D

By the ^Gquarter inch cut of your hair And the army issued green For the ^Ampast six weeks I can tell ^G Where you've been^D

For I knew,^G I could see ^D It was ^Amall cut and dried to me ^G There was sold^Amier's blue blood ^GStreaming inside your veins ^D

There's a ^Gworld outside of this room ^D And when you ^Ammeet it promise ^Gme That ^Amyou won't ^Gmeet it With your ^Dgun

For now,^G you are one One of the brave few It's so ^Amawful sad that we need ^G Boys like you ^D

I ^Ghope the day never comes For here's your live round, son Stock and bar^Amrel, safety trig^Gger Here's your gun ^D

For I knew^G, I could see ^D It was all ^Am cut and dried to me ^G There was sold^Amier's blue blood ^GStreaming inside your veins ^D

There's a wor^Gld outside of this room ^D And when you ^Ammeet it promise me ^G That ^Amyou won't ^Gmeet it With your ^D gun, taking aim

For I don't ^Gmean, to ^Amargue That they've ^Gmade a decent boy of you ^Am I don't ^Gmean to spoil your home^Dcoming, but ^AmBaby brother, you would expect me to ^G

Stock and ^Ambarrel, safety trigger ^G Here's your gun ^D

So now ^G does your heart pitter-pat With that patriotic sound When you ^Amsee the stripes of ^GOld Glory ^Dwaving

For I knew^G, I could see ^D It was all ^Am cut and dried to me ^G There was sold^Amier's blue blood ^GStreaming inside your veins ^D

There's a wor^Gld outside of this room ^D And when you ^Ammeet it promise ^Gme That ^Amyou won't ^Gmeet it With your ^D gun, taking aim

For I don't ^Gmean, to ^Amargue That they've ^Gmade a decent boy of you ^Am I don't ^Gmean to spoil your home^Dcoming My ^Ambaby brother ^DJude

And I don't ^Gmean to ^Amhurt you By ^Gsaying these things a^Amgain They're so ^Ggood at making sold^Diers But they're ^Amnot as good at making [G]Men
