Verse 1:
G                                   C      G
Well hes been collecting since the age of nine
Em                      C         G
Every shiny bullet that he could find
G                               C       G
Built himself a house with the wooden floors
Em                           C         G
Put the shiny bullets in a chest of drawers


Verse 2:
G                                 C          G
Well his wifes long gone and the kids have grown
Em                       C        G
And trees they fall down on their own
G                      C      G
Memories fade like an old slideshow
Em                                 C           G
But the bullets still shine like coins in the snow

Well one day took himself into town
C               G           D         Em
The men with a truck well they came around
C            G               D           Em
Took the television and the gun from the war
C                  G               D        Em
And almost every bullet from the chest of drawers


Verse 4:
G                                      C         G
Well he came back home and found the house in a mess
Em                            C          G
Run into the bedroom and the old brown chest
G                       C G
Didnt care much for the VCR
Em                                      C      G
But he cried for the space where the bullets were


Verse 5:
C                  G          D    Em
The men drove the truck down into town
C                  G     D         Em
And sold all the silver they had found
C                            G               D           Em
But they couldnt sell the bullets cos they werent live rounds
C                   G             D             Em
So they dug a big hole put the bullets in the ground

C              G         D       Em
And hell hold onto the three or four
C                  G            D         Em
Bullets that they left in the chest of drawers
C                               G           D         Em
