Transcribed by Robert from Astlessons
[Intro]: Em7 G Dsus4 A7sus4 x2
EmIn between the coats in the closet, she helCadd9d on to that heart-shaped locket
StGaring at a family, flawless, but it aDin't a pretty picture tonightDsus4 D
MEmom and daddy just won't stop it,Cadd9 fighting at the drop of a faucet
CGuts through the walls, catastrophic, she's cDaught in the crossfB7ire
EmPuts her hands over her eCars, starts talking through the tGears
She's sDaying, and she's prB7aying
I wEmish words were like little toy guns,C no sting, no hurting no one
Just a bGang, bang, rolling off your tongue (wDish words were like little toy guns)
Yeah,Em no smoke, no bullets,C no kick from the trigger when you pull it
NoCadd9 pain, nGo damage done (wDish words were like little toy guns)
And just aCadd9 bang, bang, rGolling off your tongue (wDish words were like little toy guns)
[Interlude]: Em7 G Dsus4 A7sus4
WEmish there was a white flag waving, or thCat they were both just faking
And Git was just a game they were playing, like shDoot-'em-up cowboys
Leave the plEmastic pistols in the front yaCrd, throw away the scorecGard
And just tDurn off all the nB7oise
I wEmish words were like little toy guns,C no sting, no hurting no one
Just a bGang, bang, rolling off your tongue (wDish words were like little toy guns)
Yeah,Em no smoke, no bullets,C no kick from the trigger when you pull it
NoCadd9 pain, nGo damage done (wDish words were like little toy guns)
And just aCadd9 bang, bang, rGolling off your tongue (wDish words were like little toy guns)
Toy gEmunsC G D
Oh, I wish they didn't Em7cut like a knife, I wish they didn't Cadd9break you inside
I wish they didn't bGang, bang, make you wanna rDun
YeEmah, like little toy guns,C no sting, no hurting no one
Just a bGang, bang, rolling off your tongue (wDish words were like little toy guns)
Yeah,Em no smoke, no bullets,C no shot from the trigger when you pull it
NoCadd9 pain, nGo damage done (wDish words were like little toy guns)
And just aCadd9 bang, bang, rGolling off your tongue (wDish words were like little toy guns)

Chordname (E A D G B E)
X = Don't play / Muffle
Information:
Even though you can't hear the D and G notes in the verses he (the guitarist) might still hold an
Em7 instead of Em, and same goes for some of the C chords (so might hold a Cadd9 but doesn't play
those strings), also on some B7 there's a fast switch to B11 before the next chord
