Used [Am]to be a cop,

[Verse 1]
but I got [Dm]to be too jumpy.
[Am]I used to like to party [Em]till I coughed
[F]up half [Dm]a lung.
Some[Am]times late at night
I hear [Dm]the beat a-bumping
I I [Am]reach for my holster and I wake [F]up all

[Interlude 1]
alone.
[Dm][Am][F][Dm][Am][Em][F]
[Dm]
[Am]Used to have a wife

[Verse 2]
but she
told [Dm]me I was crazy.
Said [Am]she couldn't stand the way
I fid[F]get all the [Dm]time.
Some[Am]times late at night
[Dm]I circle round the house.
I [Am]look through the win[Em]dows and
I dream [F]that she's still mine.
[Dm]

[Verse 3]
I got scars on my back from the
way my Daddy [G]raised me.
[Dm]I used to have a fam[F]ily until I got divorced.
[G]I've gon[Dm]e too far[Em] from
[F]the things that could save me.
I [Am]used to be a cop,
but [F]they kicked me [Dm]off the force.
I [Am]used to be a cop, till [F]they kicked me off the [Dm]force.

[Verse 4]
Used [Am]to have a car,
but the [F]bank came and [Dm]took it.
[Am]Pay ing for a house that that bitch
[F]lives in [Dm]now.[Am][F][Dm]
[Am]Children that we had won't
[F]even look at [Dm]me.
Guess there's [Am]nothing left to [Em]lose,
nothing [F]matters anyhow.
[Dm]

[Verse 5]
Got a scar on my arm from the
bullet that once [G]grazed me.
I [Dm]keep it in a box to [C]remind
[F]me where I've [G]been.
That [Dm]thin blue line was the [Em]only
[F]thing that [G]could save me.
[Dm]I used to have a badge [F]but
they made me turn it in[G].

[Verse 6]
And [C]I used to play foot[G]ball,
[Bb]but [F]I wasn't big eno[C]ugh for college.[G][F]
[Dm]But I pass[C]ed the entranc[G]e exam[F] first try,[Dm]
and on [C]my [G]way.[F][Dm]
Po[C]lice [Gsus4]Academy g[Bb]ave [F]me
the only [C]thing I was [G]ever good [F]at,
[Dm]but my temper [C]and the [G]shakes, and [F]they took that thi[Dm]ng away.

Used [Am]to have a wife,

[Dm]with the anger a[Am]nd the tension that was welli[F]ng
[Dm]inside[A][Am][F][Dm][Am]
[F]of [Dm]me.
Sometimes late [Am]at night,
[F]I circle round the [Dm]house
I [Am]look through the window and I remem
[F]ber how it used [Dm]to b[Am]e.[F][Dm]
I [Am]look through the windows and I remem[F]ber how [Dm]it used to be.
