[Verse]
                   C  G  D
She’s crying again
                           C  G  D
You lay quiet on her chest
                                 C  G D
She knows you’re a dangerous comfort
                                     C  G  D
But you haven’t broken her heart yet

[Verse]
                         C  G  D
She wants to feel safe again
                           C  G  D
She thinks that you understand
                                C  G  D
Maybe it’s crazy, maybe it’s brave
                                Em
Either way, it’s a losing game

[Pre-Chorus]
                    D             C  Em
She’s hoping she’ll know what to do
       D       C
With a 6 shot 22

[Chorus]
         G                          C
When the only one who’s innocent is cold blue steel
        G                                 C
For the first time someone’s listening to how she feels
     Em              D
Lord knows you can’t save her
          C
You can’t stop or change her plans
        N.C.            C  G  D    C  G  D
Just an American revolver

[Verse]
                                     C  G  D
You’re a proof she means what she says
                                 C  G  D
It’s a fairer fight with you around
                                 C  G  D
To rescue her if things get so bad
                                  Em
There’s no other possible way out

[Pre-Chorus]
          D               C     Em
She keeps going back and forth
           D            C
Between herself and the door

[Chorus]
         G                          C
When the only one who’s innocent is cold blue steel
        G                                 C
For the first time someone’s listening to how she feels
     Em              D
Lord knows you can’t save her
          C
You can’t stop or change her plans
                        C  G  D
Just an American revolver

[Bridge]
                               C   G     D
Too late now for 'I’m sorry' (American revolver)
                                 C   G     D
He’s coming up the front steps (American revolver)
                         Em
He’s been drinking again

[Pre-Chorus]
                D        C     Em
She keeps going back and forth
           D            C
Between herself and the door

[Chorus]
         G                          C
When the only one who’s innocent is cold blue steel
    G                                   C
But this time someone’s gonna listen to how she feels
     Em              D
Lord knows you can’t save her
          C
You can’t stop or change her plans
        N.C.            C  G  D
Just an American revolver
           C                G D
American revolver( American revolver)
           C     G  D    C  G  D
