[Verse]
Csus2         D
     I keep a weather eye on the horizon, my back to the wall
                                            C5          G/B
I like to know who's coming through the door, that's all
         D5           G5  D           G5
It's the old army training kicking in
D                 G5            C5               D Csus2 D Csus2
  I'm not complaining, it's the world we live in
D
  Blarney and Malarkey they're a devious firm
                                C5          G/B
They'll take you to the cleaners or let you burn
    D5               G5             D                     G5
The help is breaking dishes in the kitchen - thanks a lot
D                      G5     C5                  D Csus2 D
We hired the worst dishwasher this place ever got
G5                                      C5            D Csus2 D
  Come in below the radar, they want to spoil our fun
          A     F G      F  G           D Csus2 D Csus2
In the meantime     I'm cleaning my gun
D
Remember it got so cold ice froze up the tank
                          C5                G/B
We lit a fire beneath her just so she would crank
         D5                    G5              D                    G5
I keep a weather eye on the horizon, tap the stormglass now and then
               D           G5             C5                D     Csus2 D
I've got a case of Old Damnation for when you get here, my friend
G5                                C5             D Csus2 D
  We can have ourselves a party before they come
          A     F G      F  G           D Csus2 D Csus2
In the meantime     I'm cleaning my gun

[Bridge]
G5                                         D5
  We had women and a mirror ball, we had a dee jay
G5                                 D5
  used to eat pretty much all that came his way
G5                                 D5
  Ever since the goons came in and took apart the place
E                                     A
 I keep a tyre iron in the corner, just in case

I gave you a magic bullet on a little chain
                                           C5              G/B
to keep you safe from the chilly winds and out of the rain
D5                       G5     D                   G5
  We're gonna might need bullets should we get stuck
D          G5                      C5          D   Csus2 D
  Any which way, we're going to need a little luck
             G5                         C5                 D Csus2 D
You can still get gas in Heaven and a drink in Kingdom Come
          A     F G      F  G           D Csus2 D Csus2
In the meantime     I'm cleaning my gun

[Outro]
D Csus2 until the end, finishing in D
