Can't Stop the Killer Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]You'll raise the daughter and
she'll raise the son
You'll [C]live like two people
that wish they were one
She [D]may not be perfect,
but oh, my friend, neither [Am]are you
[Em]

[Verse 2]
You feel like you're waiting
for some[Am]body [Em]to
re[C]mind you of all the things that
you're supposed to do
[D]Careful what you reach for,
one more step and you're fall[Em]ing through

[Verse 3]
[Em]
Your family's a joke
and your job is your life
The [C]time spent without them is
time spent most every night
[D]Get your house in order 'cause it's
gonna be a bump [Em]ride

[Verse 4]
[C]
(You can't stop,
you can't stop the killer)
[Em](You can't [C]stop, you can't stop the kil[Em]ler) I
[D]wor[Em]k my hands right down to the bone
still [C]you don't give me what I want
You are [D]so ungrateful
we're more like a [Am]house
than a [Em]home[D]
[Em]Please dear understand
I'm sorry [C]again for all that I said
How could [D]you leave?
I swear that I'll be [Am]a better ma[Em]n
Well, go ahead [D]an d [Em]run, run, [C]run
from the man with the gun in his hand
[D]Darling I would shoot you
before I would [Am]ever let [C]you leave
[D]Oh, dear God

[Verse 5]
In [C]a certain place I've kept my outs
one for us both, two for my doubts
I'm [Em]shaking. I'm hollow because
[C]I know how to get this done
so I will be the only one to [Em]follow
to follow through [C]with [Em]this[C]
[x2]

[Verse 6]
[Em]You [D]kneel [Em]beside her
at the foot of the grave
Your [C]daughter is crying and you say
she's in a better [C]place
[D]She was never perfect, oh,
my friend, [Am]neither were you
