INTRO

D                   Em           G
Bottle of wine, and an old 45, rifle in the corner that her grandfather 

                 D
left her when he died, 

      Em
Said no surprise, 

  G
I?ve had to use it quite a few times, 

  A         G              A
So Jay, don?t you ever let us down, 

          G
Don?t you ever, 

  A                      G                      D
I?ll have to shoot you and no one will hear a sound? 

CHORUS

  D           Em                        G
Bruised and bloody, I?m lying on the ground, 

  D       Em           G
And I am aware that I let the poor girl down, 

  D       Em          G
Now I?m dying, as a message to the town, 

  D          Em      G
This what happens, if you fuck around, 

  A                     G         A                      G
So meddle if you want trouble, trouble then you should meddle, 

A                G                  D
But don?t ever meddle with Emily?s heart? 


VERSE 1

   D            Em         G
She said, get your coat, come on, 

  D                         Em
To the dog track with the money right, 

  G
Yeah we had some fun, 

 D        Em           G
Left with more ?cause we won, 

 D                      Em              G
I was under investigation on suspicion of doing her wrong, She said, 


 D       Em       G        D        Em        G
You?ve become a villain, accused of a hit and run, 

         D              Em          G                              
Said, she hit me first, and I, say it?s the worst that I ever felt, 

 D    Em     G
In a broken heart. 


VERSE 2
  D     Em              G    
Bloodstains on her shirt creases
D         Em                      G     
Hope she pays the dues, 
D     Em     G                                               
When I left she said, that your last breath will be 
D                     Em         G
Down by the station at 2,  Swear she shot me down. 

CHORUS (as before)

Bruised and bloody, I?m lying on the ground, 
And I am aware that I let the poor girl down, 
Now I?m dying, as a message to the town, 
This what happens, if you fuck around, 
So whenever, you want trouble, trouble then you should meddle, 
But don?t ever meddle with Emily?s heart? 

D       Em      
She said I?m a user,            G                                           D
and she?s a loser with a gun, 
D              Em   
I said if you choose to                           G                                    D
it becomes hard to include anyone,
D                Em                 G                       Em 
So if you stay, put it away, or should I run?
D                   Em 
She said I think you know                  G                                          D 
the answer to your question, 

D                    Em 
So for the smiles, and all                                     G                                   D
of the miles that the engine?s done,
D                             Em
The further I drive away                G                             D 
the closer we become, 
D                   Em            G
So if I stay, would you put it away                      Em         
and forgive this one son? 
Em 
She said Jay I think you know the answer to your question? 

CHORUS (as before)
Bruised and bloody, I?m lying on the ground, 
And I am aware that I let the poor girl down, 
Now I?m dying, as a message to the town, 
This what happens, if you fuck around, 
So meddle if you want trouble, trouble then you should meddle, 
But don?t ever meddle with Emily?s heart
