[Intro]
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
D7/C

[Verse 1]
Em      D/F#      G
  Send away for a priceless gift
Cmaj7                D7/C
     One not subtle, one not on the list
Em      D/F#      G
  Send away for a perfect world
Cmaj7               D7/C
     One not simply,    so absurnd
Em         D/F#     G
  In these times of doing what you're told
Cmaj7
     Keep these feelings,
D7/C
    no one knows

[Pre-Chorus]
Am          Am6             Em
  What ever happened to the young man's heart
Am             Am6
  Swallowed by pain,
      G            F#5
as he slowly fell apart

[Chorus]
        Em                           D
And I'm staring down the barrel of a fourty five (fourty
five)
Cadd9
Swimming through the ashes of another life (another life)
Em                 D
No real reson to accept the way things have changed
Cadd9                        Am         Em D/F#
Staring down the barrel of a fourty five

[Intrelude]
G Cmaj7 D7/C

[Verse 2]
Em       D/F#           G
  Send a message to the unborn child
Cmaj7                   D7/C
     Keep your eyes open    for a while
Em     D/F# G
  In a box  high up on the shelf
Cmaj7             D7/C
     Left for you,    no one else
Em          D/F#       G
  There's a piece of a puzzle known as life
Cmaj7
     Wrapped in guilt,
D7/C
    sealed up tight

[Pre-Chorus]
Am          Am6             Em
  What ever happened to the young man's heart
Am             Am6
  Swallowed by pain,
      G            F#5
as he slowly fell apart

[Chorus]
        Em                           D
And I'm staring down the barrel of a fourty five (fourty
five)
Cadd9
Swimming through the ashes of another life (another life)
Em                 D
No real reson to accept the way things have changed
Cadd9                        Am
Staring down the barrel of a fourty five

[Bridge]
Cadd9           Bsus2
     Everyone's pointing their fingers
Cadd9          Bsus2
     Always condemning me
Cadd9             Bsus2          Em   D/F#
     (And) nobody knows what I believe
G Cmaj7  Em   D/F# Cadd9
  I    believe

[Chorus]
        Em                           D
And I'm staring down the barrel of a fourty five (fourty
five)
Cadd9
Swimming through the ashes of another life (another life)
Em                 D
No real reson to accept the way things have changed
Cadd9                        Am
Staring down the barrel of a fourty five

[Outro]
        Em                           Gadd9
And I'm staring down the barrel of a fourty five
        Cadd9
And I'm swimming through the ashes of another life
         Em                  Gadd9
There is no real reason to accept the way things have
changed
Cadd9                         Am         Em Gadd9
Starring down the barrel of a fourty five
Cadd9       Em
     Fourty five
Gadd9 Cadd9 Am
