Dm
I was five, and he was six
  Dm
We rode on horses made of sticks
  Gm
He wore black, and I wore white
  Gm
He would always win the fight
 
Chorus:
Dm
Bang bang. He shot me down
Dm
Bang bang. I hit the ground
      Gm
Bang bang. That awful sound
      A              Dm
Bang bang. My baby shot me down

Verse 2:
Dm
Seasons came, and changed the time
Dm
When I grew up I called him mine
Gm
He would always laugh and say
Gm
"Remember when we used to play

Chorus 2:
Dm
Bang bang. I shot you down
Dm
Bang bang. You hit the ground
Gm
Bang bang. That awful sound
      A           Dm
Bang bang. I used to shoot you down"

Gm
Music played, and people sang
Dm
Just for me the church bells rang

Verse 3:
Dm
Now he's gone, I don't know why
Dm
And till this day sometimes I cry
Gm
He didn't even say "Goodbye"
Gm
He didn't take the time to lie

Chorus 3:
Dm
Bang bang. He shot me down
Dm
Bang bang. I hit the ground
         Gm
Bang bang. That awful sound
           A           Dm
Bang bang. My baby shot me down
