[Verse 1]
Dm
I wake up in the morning
      C
And I raise my weary head
            G
I've got an old coat for a pillow
        Dm
And the earth was last night's bed
  F
I don't know where I'm going
     C
Only God knows where I've been
      G
I'm a devil on the run, a six gun lover
  Dm
A candle in the wind

[Verse 2]
            Dm
When you're brought into this world
     C
They say you're born in sin
         G
Well, at least they gave me something
                 Dm
I didn't have to steal or have to win
           F
Well, they tell me that I'm wanted
      C
Yeah, I'm a wanted man
      G
I'm a colt in your stable, I'm what Cain was to Abel
       Dm
Mister catch me if you can
 
 
[Chorus]
          G                  D
I'm going down in a blaze of glory
        G                D
Take me now but know the truth
          G                 D
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
        C
Lord, I never drew first, but I drew first blood
    G
I'm no one's son, call me young gun

[Verse 3]
    Dm
You ask about my conscience
      C
And I offer you my soul
                G
You ask if I'll grow to be a wise man
        Dm
Well, I ask if I'll grow old
    F
You ask me if I've known love
                      C
And what it's like to sing songs in the rain
           G
Well, I've seen love come, I've seen it shot down
     Dm
I've seen it die in vain
 
 
[Chorus]
     G                  D
Shot down in a blaze of glory
        G                D
Take me now but know the truth
                 G                  D
'Cause I'm going down in a blaze of glory
        C
Lord, I never drew first, but I drew first blood
        G
I'm the devil's son, call me young gun

[Verse 4]
     Dm
Each night I go to bed
           C
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
            G
No, I ain't looking for forgiveness
      Dm
But before I'm six foot deep
      F
Lord, I got to ask a favor
      C
And I hope you'll understand
            G
'Cause I've lived life to the fullest
           Dm
Let this boy die like a man
G
Staring down a bullet
       Dm
Let me make my final stand
 
 
[Chorus]
     G                  D
Shot down in a blaze of glory
        G                D
Take me now but know the truth
          G                 D
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
        C
Lord, I never drew first, but I drew first blood
        G
and I'm no one's son
              D C
Call me young gun
            G  D
I'm a young gun
D C  G
