Tuning: E A D G B E

Gretchen Peters - When All You Got Is A Hammer INTRO: Am There's a bible on the table

There's a ^Cbottle on the shelf There's a ^Fwoman in the ^Amkitchen Crying ^E7quietly to herself

Down the ^Amhallway, in the bedroom He can ^Chear his children wail When ^Fall you got is a ^Amhammer ^E7Everything looks like a ^Amnail

Well he came home from the desert

With a ^Cmedal on his chest Like a ^Fhero, like a ^Amchampion But he ^E7felt more like a guest

Now he ^Amsleeps with one eye open And he ^Cwakes up scared as hell And ^Fall he's got is a ^Amhammer And ^E7everything looks like a ^Amnail

CHORUS:

Well, they ^Cshow you how to shoot And they ^Gshow you how to kill But they don't ^Dmshow you what to do With this ^E7hole that you can't fill

So you ^Amdwell in the darkness of your soul Like ^CJonah in the belly of the whale And ^Fall you got is a ^Amhammer And ^E7everything looks like a ^Amnail

INSTRUMENTAL: Am C F Am E7 (2x) Am When a good man in a bad dream

Can't ^Cmake it on his own When he ^Fcan't feed his own damn ^Amchildren On the ^E7money that he brings home

And the ^Amdeck is stacked against him And he ^Cknows he's bound to fail And ^Fall he's got is a ^Amhammer ^E7Everything looks like a ^Amnail

CHORUS:

Well, they ^Cshow you how to shoot And they ^Gshow you how to kill But they don't ^Dmshow you what to do With this ^E7hole that you can't fill

So you ^Amdwell in the darkness of your soul Like ^CJonah in the belly of the whale And ^Fall you got is a ^Amhammer And ^E7everything looks like a ^Amnail

Yeah, all you got is a hammer

And ^E7eve^N.C.rything looks like a ^Amnail
