Am    
I didn't mean to end his life
I know it wasn't right
         G
I can't even sleep at night
Can't get it off my mind
        Am
I need to get out of sight
                        G 
Before I end up behind bars


               Am
What started out as a simple altercation
          G
Turned into a real sticky situation
            F
Me just thinking on the time that I'm facing
              G
Makes me wanna cry

--------------
  Am                    G
Cause I didn't mean to hurt him
                        Am
Coulda been somebody's son
                 G
And I took his heart when
                   Am
I pulled out that gun

                                 G

                G
When she fits right down in my shoes
What do you expect me to
              F

I will lose my cool
              G
And reach for my fire arm


                   Am
I didn't mean to lay him down
                     G
But its too late to turn back now

Don't know what I was thinking
Now hes no longer living
     G
