Little Toy Guns

Intro: Em7 G Dsus4 A7sus4 (2x)

Em                                         Cadd9
In between the coats in the closet, she held on to that heart-shaped locket
  G                                    D                            Dsus4 D
Staring at a family, flawless, but it ain't a pretty picture tonight
 Em                              Cadd9
Mom and daddy just won't stop it, fighting at the drop of a faucet
 G                                           D                  B7
Cuts through the walls, catastrophic, she's caught in the crossfire

Em                       C                                G
Puts her hands over her ears, starts talking through the tears
       D                  B7
She's saying, and she's praying

   Em                                  C
I wish words were like little toy guns, no sting, no hurting no one
        G                                    D
Just a bang, bang, rolling off your tongue (wish words were like little toy guns)
     Em                    C
Yeah, no smoke, no bullets, no kick from the trigger when you pull it
  Cadd9   G               D
No pain, no damage done (wish words were like little toy guns)
          Cadd9         G                        D
And just a bang, bang, rolling off your tongue (wish words were like little toy guns)

Interlude: Em7  G  Dsus4  A7sus4

 Em                                      C
Wish there was a white flag waving, or that they were both just faking
    G                                            D
And it was just a game they were playing, like shoot-'em-up cowboys
            Em                           C                        G
Leave the plastic pistols in the front yard, throw away the scorecard
          D                B7
And just turn off all the noise

   Em                                  C
I wish words were like little toy guns, no sting, no hurting no one
        G                                    D
Just a bang, bang, rolling off your tongue (wish words were like little toy guns)
     Em                    C
Yeah, no smoke, no bullets, no kick from the trigger when you pull it
  Cadd9   G               D
No pain, no damage done (wish words were like little toy guns)
          Cadd9         G                        D
And just a bang, bang, rolling off your tongue (wish words were like little toy guns)

Oh, I wish they didn't cut like a knife, I wish they didn't break you inside
                    G                          D
I wish they didn't bang, bang, make you wanna run

  Em                       C
Yeah, like little toy guns, no sting, no hurting no one
        G                                    D
