[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G]
[C][Am][C][G][C][Am][C][G][D]

[Verse 1]
[C]My
neigh[G]bour's car [C]got stole last night
Right out of his [G]driveway
We heard the [C]dogs[Cm]
[C]a'barking
We never paid 'em [Em]any [G]mind
Mary says she's gonna [C]lock the door
From now on when we go [G]away
And I've been walking around
[C]this farm
Wonderin' if it's [D]time
Time to [G]get a gun
That's what I've been [Am]thinking
I could af[C]ford one
If I did just a [D]little less drinking
Time to put [G]something
Between me and [Am]the sun
When the talking is [C]over
It's time to get a [G]gun

[Verse 2]
Last [G]week the Government
[C]Man was there
When I walked out of my back [G]door
He said I'm sorry to [C]bother you, son
But it don't matter any[G]more
[C]'Ca[G]use even while we're [C]talking
Right here where [G]we stand
They're making plans [C]for
a four lane highway
And a big old overpass
[D]Time to get a gun[G]
That's what I've been [Am]thinking
I could af[C]ford one
If I did just a [D]little less drinking
Time to put [G]something
Between me and [Am]the sun
When the talking is [C]over
It's time to get a [G]gun

[Verse 3]
[D]Mary says she's worried
[Am]About herself and the kids
[C]She's nev[D]er known anybody had a gun
And her [Am]Daddy nev[C]er [Am]did
[C]But I t[D]hink it should be up to me
'Cause when it's [C]all said and done
[D]Somebody's got to walk into the night
Well [C]I'm gonna be that [D]one
Time to [G]get a gun
[C]That's what I've been thinking
I could afford one
If I did a [D]little less drinking
[C]Time to put [G]something
Between me and [Am]the sun
When the talking is [C]over
It's time to get a [G]gun

[Verse 4]
When the talking is [Am]over
It's time to get a [G]gun
When the talking is [Am]over[C]
It's time to get a [Gm]gun[G]
Time to get [C]a g[Am]un[Am]
