  Em 
In   between the coats in the closet 
            C 
She held on    to that heart shaped locket 
    G 
Staring at a family flawless 
           D 
But it ain't a pretty picture tonight 
   Em 
Mom   and daddy just wouldn't stop it 
     C 
Fighting at the drop of a faucet 
G 
Cuts through the walls catastrophic 
            D                   B7 
She's caught    in the crossfire
[Pre-Refrain]
Em                          C 
     Puts her hands over her ears 
                           G 
Starts talking through the tears 
             D                B7 
and She's say -ing, she's pray - ing

I wish words were like little toy guns

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

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 
Leave the plastic pistols in the front ya----rd 
                         G                                    D 
Throw away the score card        and just turn off all the noise

Oh, I wish they didn't cut like a knife
