Key : F#m
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
C#m Amaj7 Dmaj7sus2 Bm
F#sus4

[Verse 1]
---------------------
                        C#m
Another shooting on the southeast side. This a driveby, midday,
   Amaj7                                              Dmaj7sus2
Outside of the bus stop, by Fuller and Franklin. Or near       there.
                      Bm                             F#sus4
Not far from the park.  About a block from where the other shooting was last month.
Or was it last week?

[Verse 2]
---------------------
C#m                                          Amaj7
   Shots were fired from an SUV heading northbound, Eastown,
                            Dmaj7sus2               Bm
The target a rival but they didn't hit the target this time.
           F#sus4
They hit a kid   we think had nothing to do with it.

[Bridge 1]
---------------------
                 F#m           A        E      F#m
And I travel backwards through time and space and   I disintegrate, become invisible.
I want to see it where I couldn't when it happened.

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
D C#m
     I want to see it all first hand this time.
F#m D C#m
         I want to know what it felt like.
F#m                    D          C#m
   So I float behind police lines,   reconstruct the scene in fragments of memories.
F#m                        D                           C#m
   I want to know what his mother looked like up close,   I want to see her leaning 
over his body.
F#m                 D               C#m
   So I float there, transcend time.   I want to capture it accurately.
F#m                        D                     C#m
   I want to know what the color of the blood was   spilling out from the tarp onto 
the concrete.

[Post-Chorus 1]
---------------------
 A                                               F#m
I want to write it all down so I can always remember.
                                                      Bm              A
If you could see it up close how could you ever forget  how senseless death, how 
precious life.
E
    I want to be there when the bullet hit.

[Verse 3]
---------------------
F#m A E6 F#m A E6                     F#m                                     A      
                 And the crowd poured out as the shots drowned into siren sounds, out
                    E6
 of their houses now
                     F#m                                                     A
And over front yards,   all the way up to the place where the police tape ran to mark 
the crime
       E6                          F#m
Scene. Everybody trying to catch a glimpse of what was happening,
                    A                     E6
Of what was going on between the ambulance  and all the cop cars.
F#m                                     A                       E6
Everybody gossiping, "Whose kid got hit? Where'd it hit him? And  who could've fired 
it?"
F#m                                           A                      E6
Everybody wondering, "How did it happen again? And is he dead? These children. Our 
kids."
F#m                                A                               E6
Everybody wondering how far they were from where the victims lived.

[Verse 4]
---------------------
                 F#m             E6          F#m                A
And I visit them,   their houses.  Inside my dream I visit them.
           F#m                  E6          F#m                      E6               
My spirit, soaring high and high  up over King Park, leaves the crime  scene, travels 
F#m
further back
                                               A                F#m
Till far before the shooting, through their windows, to their living rooms.
                                           E6              F#m
I see them younger this time, playing games  and doing homework.

[Verse 5]
---------------------
                                          Amaj7            F#m
All these marks of youth soon transformed coldly into stone   for fights and stupid 
feuds.
          E                    F#m                                            Amaj7
For ruins wrapped in gold. And cruelly I recall why I have come: To find a reason. But
      F#m                                         E              F#m  E A
There cannot be a reason, not for death, not like this. Not like this.

[Bridge 3]
---------------------
Bm     | Bmadd9 | G      | E7sus2 
F#m    | E      | A      | Bm     
Bmadd9 | G      | E7sus2 | F#m

[Verse 6]
---------------------
Bm                           Bmadd9               G
  Three days later they made funeral plans. The family.
E7sus2                   F#m   E
         Three days later a mother had to bury her son.
A      | Bm  | Bmadd9 | G 
E7sus2 | F#m | E      | A 

[Verse 7]
---------------------
Bm                         Bmadd9              G
  Not far away the shooter holed up in a hotel near to the highway with a friend and 
the gun.
E7sus2              F#m E A Bm                     Bmadd9                      G
         That same gun.          He'd fled immediately      but was identified by 
witnesses, his picture on TV.
                  E7sus2                          F#m                      E
Only 20 years old,         they called him "Grandpa."   He was older than the others by
 a year,
A
 Maybe two.
   Bm                                                   Em                      C
And  he was safe for awhile until somebody saw him there  and notified the authorities

[Verse 8]
---------------------
                     Am
Who surrounded the hotel, first arresting an accomplice while attempting to flee,
Em                             G                                   C
  Then chasing him up the staircase to the floor where he'd stayed. He closed the 
door hard
Behind him, locked himself in the room.
Em                                C                           Am
  They could've kicked in the door but knew the gun was still with him,
One he'd already used and so they feared what he'd do.
Em                            G
  I floated up through the window of a room to the West.
C
 I hovered out to the hallway, tried to listen in.
Em                          C
  I heard them trying to reason, get him to open the door.
Am
  His uncle begging and pleading, halfcollapsed to the floor.
Em                               G
  He preached of hope and forgiveness,
                               C
Said, "There is always a chance to rectify what you've taken, make your peace in the 
world."
Em                                   C
  I thought to slip through the door, I could've entered the room,
Am
  I felt the burden of murder, it shook the earth to the core.
Em                              G             C
  Felt like the world was collapsing. Then we heard him speak,

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Em                      C
  "Can I still get into heaven if I kill myself?
Am
  "Can I still get into heaven if I kill myself?
Em                 G
  Can I ever be forgiven 'cause I killed that kid?
C
 It was an accident I swear it wasn't meant for him!
Em                       C                 Am
  And if I turn it on me, if I even it out,  can I still get in or will they send me 
to hell?
Em                     G
  Can I still get into heaven if I kill myself?"
C
 I left the hotel behind, don't want to know how it ends.
