Tuning:
Jack plays this as all bar chords with the Am at the 5th fret.
This version is based on his Live in Japan performance of the song,
which has a bridge of sorts.
[Intro]
You got to turn that thing Amdown
Em D Em Riff
Am Em D Em
Am It wasn’t me, Emsays the boy with the gun.
Sure I pulled the D trigger, but it Emneeded to be done.
Am Because life’s been killing me ever Emsince it begun
D You can’t blame me becauseEm I’m too young
Am Em D Em Riff
Am Em D Em
[Verse]
Am You can’t blame me, sure the Emkiller was my son
but i didn’t teach Dhim to pull the Emtrigger of the gun.
It’s the Amkilling on his TV Emscreen
You can’t D blame me, it’s those Emimages he's seen.
[Bridge]
Em D
Am Feel like I’m wakin’ Bmup from a bad bad Emdream.
D Am Bm
Am Em D Em Riff
Am Em D Em
[Verse]
You Amcan’t blame me, says the Emmedia man.
I D wasn’t the one who came Emup with the plan.
Am i just point my camera at what the Empeople want to see.
D It’s a two way mirror and Emyou can’t blame me.
Am Em D Em Riff
[Verse]
No you can’t Am blame me, says the Emsinger of the song.
Or the D maker of the movie which he Embased his life on.
It’s only Am entertainment, as Emanyone can see.
It’s D smoke machines and makeup, you Emcan’t fool me.
[Bridge]
Em D
Am Feel like I’m wakin’ Bmup from a bad bad Emdream.
D Am Bm
Am Em D Em Riff
Am Em D Em
[Verse]
It was Amyou, it was me, it was Emevery man.
We’ve all D got that blood on our Emhands.
Am We only receive what Emwe demand.
And if we D want hell then Emhell’s what we'll have.
[Instrumental]
Am Em D Em Riff
Am Em D Em
[Verse]
I would Amturn on the TV, buEmt it’s so embarrassing.
ToD see all the other people, I Emdon’t know what they mean.
It was Am magic at first, it Em let everyone down.
But now this Dworld is gonna hurt, you better turn Emthat thing down.
Am Em D Em Riff
Turn it around.
Am
