[Intro]
---------------------
C | Cmaj7 | Am7 | C/F
C | Cmaj7 | Am7
C/F
[Verse 1]
---------------------
C Cmaj7 Am7
Broke into her house, saw her sitting there
C/F
Drinking coke and whiskey in her bra and underwear
C Cmaj7 Am7
Saw him in the kitchen, hanging up the phone
C/F
I asked him nicely once to pack his things and go
[Verse 2]
---------------------
C Cmaj7 Am7
He gave her a reassuring look, said he wouldn't leave
C/F
But I asked him one more time, this time pulled out my shiv
C Cmaj7
Struck him in the back and I pulled it out slow
Am7 C/F
And I watched him fall down, and as the morning sun rose
G
He looked at me, he said
[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
C Am7
You missed my heart, you missed my heart
C/F G
You got me good, I knew you would
C Am7
But you missed my heart, you missed my heart
C/F G
Were his last words before he died
[Verse 3]
---------------------
C Cmaj7 Am7
Looking out the window, up at the blue sky
C/F
Listening to her scream, listening to her cry
C Cmaj7 Am7
A feeling of relief came over my soul
C/F
I couldn't take it any longer and I lost control
[Verse 4]
---------------------
C Cmaj7 Am7
I chased her up the stairs and I pinned her to the ground
C/F
And underneath her whimpering I could hear the sirens sound
C Cmaj7 Am7
I rattled off a list of all the things I missed
C/F C
Like going to the movies with her and the way she kissed me
[Verse 5]
---------------------
Cmaj7
Driving into downtown Wheeling, showing her off
Am7 C/F
Backyard barbecues and reunions in the park
C Cmaj7
I said I missed her skin when she started laughing
Am7 C/F
While I clenched down on her wrist, she said that's quite a list
But there's one thing you missed
[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
G C Am7
You missed my heart, you missed my heart
C/F
That's quite a list, but what you really missed
G C Am7
You missed my heart, you missed my heart
C/F G
That's quite a list, but what you really missed
[Verse 6]
---------------------
C Cmaj7 Am7
Running through the parking lot, running through the fields
C/F
Policemen on my back, something hit my skull and cracked
C Cmaj7 Am7
They dragged me off to jail, set a million dollar bail
C/F
Where I tried to tie a noose, but I failed and I broke loose
[Verse 7]
---------------------
C Cmaj7 Am7
I went racing through the prison yard, shot down by a tower guard
C/F
He got me in the shins, and he got me in the arms
C Cmaj7 Am7
They strapped me in the gurney, took me off to the infirmary
C/F
Where the priest read my last rites
G
And just before, everything went dark
C Am7
I said: He missed my heart, he missed my heart
[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
C/F G
He got me good, I knew he would
C Am7
But he missed my heart, he missed my heart
C/F G
And just before, everything went dark
[Verse 8]
---------------------
C Cmaj7 Am7
The most poetic dream came flowing like the sea
C/F
Laying there my lifeblood draining out of me
C Cmaj7
A childhood scene night sky moon beams
Am7 C/F
Fishing with my friends sitting in the wild reeds
[Verse 9]
---------------------
C Cmaj7
Watching the Ohio river flow at night
Am7 C/F
Waiting for the bullheaded catfishes to bite
C Cmaj7 Am7 C/F
Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyard
[Outro]
---------------------
C Cmaj7
Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyard
Am7 C/F C Cmaj7
Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyard
Am7 C/F C Cmaj7
Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyard
Am7 C/F C Cmaj7 Am7 C/F
Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyard
