[Intro]
Em
…..
Em D
Ooh, ah ah
Am C
Ah ah….
[Verse 1]
Em
Well…an eye for an eye
D
..A throat for a throat
Am
..A dream never dies
C
But…sometimes it chokes
Em
..I wish you were here
D
To…show me the way
Am
..Who would you kill
C
..Who would you save
[Pre-Chorus]
C
And now that you’re gone
D
I’ve slipped off the rails
Em
I’ve prayed for revenge
D
But I’m afraid I will fail
C
Because we live in a world
D
Where even the angels are
[Chorus]
Em G
Retaliators, retaliators
Am
Th?re’s blood on my hands
I see the holy father
C
Tasted revenge and it’s as sweet as holy water
Em D
Retaliators, retaliators
Am
I’m throwing away
All the blessings I gave her
C
Twenty one bullets
But it’s not gonna save her
[Post-Chorus]
Em
Twenty one bullets, twenty one guns
Em
Twenty one daughters, twenty one sons
Em
Twenty one bullets, twenty one guns
Em
Twenty one daughters, twenty one sons
[Verse 2]
Em
..A fang for a fang
D
..A knot on a rope
Am
..The sound of the dead
C
Is…what gives me hope
Em
..But the blood on my tongue
D
..And the sweat on my neck
Am
..You can’t outrun
C
What comes for you next
[Pre-Chorus]
C
And now that you’re gone
D
I’ve slipped off the rails
Em
I pray for revenge
D
But I’m afraid I will fail
C
Because we live in a world
D
Where even the angels are
[Chorus]
Em G
Retaliators, retaliators
Am
There’s blood on my hands
I see the holy father
C
Tasted revenge and it’s as sweet as holy water

I’m throwing away
All the blessings I gave her

Twenty one bullets
But it’s not gonna save her
