G5 C5 There's a twelve gauge shotgun lyin' on the floor G5 D5 And she's not sure that he's breathin' anymore G5 C5 Now she's sittin on the corner of her bed in her room G5 D5 Sirens blarin' they'll be there soon G5 C5 And now she's cryin' with her head in her hands D5 G5 Talkin' so fast that they don't understand G5 C5 Said he hit her that morning, he hit her that night D5 G5 But all she remembers was a flashin' light Chorus: G5 C5 But he's never gonna hit her again G5 D5 He's never gonna hit her again G5 C5 You can be real sure of a one thing friend D5 G5 He'll never ever hit her again (Solo) Well he caught her with a quick right cross And didn't know the line he'd crossed Now there's blood in her hair and blood on her clothes Blood still runnin' from her nose Well she went and found a box of shells Gonna send him straight to hell There were tears on her face when her eyes turned black Never knew a twelve gauge could kick like that Chorus There's a twelve gauge shotgun lyin' on the floor And she's not sure that he's breathin' anymore Well they put her in the cop car took her downtown All of the neighbors standing around And now she's cryin' with her head in her hands Talkin' so fast that they don't understand Said he hit her that morning, he hit her that night But all she remembers was a flashin' light Chorus Outro
