Only One Shot - Franz Robert WILD (Capo 5º)
Em Asus2
I am a wolf,
Dsus2 C9
Raised by crook,
Em Asus2
I'm counting on my fang to
Dsus2 C9 Em
Pro-tect my child, my family,
Asus2
Don’t come around,
Dsus2 C9
Words sometimes are weapons,
Em Asus2
Guns sometimes are toys
Dsus2 C9 C
And bullet often, iron made
D Em
It's only one shot and you're gone
C D Em
It's only one shot and it’s a big black hole
C D Em
It's only one shot and it's dark...
I am a child
Tangled up in confused situation
Lost at love and at home
With no heart where to hide
I am a priest,
Talkin’ in the name of God
Teaching love and compassion
Hiding a riffle under my robe
It's only one shot and you're gone
It's only one shot and it’s a big black hole
It's only one shot and it's dark...
Bridge
G D
I once heard a cry in the night
A brief witness of fights
Em E5
An old remake of a race with a bullet
G
Everyone feel the wind, you know
D
But never catch it, wherever it blows
C
Everyone would like to feel safe
C
Until his last whisper… and you know
Chorus and ad lib

Gone Gone Gone - Franz Robert WILD (Capo 3º)
Am E E7
I lay down on my pillow in this familiar space,
Dm C Am
Just caught up in my dreams and my bones,
Am E E7
I count my wounds among this beautiful lace,
Dm C Am
It’s a long night and I had, better be gone…
F G
Gone with the wind in the last hurricane,
Am
Gone, gone, gone,
F G
Gone with butterfly & bugs under acid rains
Am F
Gone, gone, gone,
C F C
Gone for all the wrong reasons and that’s maybe why…
G Am
I can’t hardly find my rest tonight
Am E E7
And if stars are shining tonight in these memories
Dm C Am
As a part of it I’m howling at the moon, still alive,
Am E E7
This vicious venom has to be called as it is
Dm C Am
But I’d like to know in the end, who will survive
F G
Gone after or before disaster, well, what’s worse
Am
Gone, gone, gone,
F G
Gone exactly from the face of the earth,
Am F
Gone, gone, gone,
C F C
Gone for all the wrong reasons, and that’s maybe why…
G Am
I can’t hardly find my rest tonight…

These days ain’t gonna take, much more,
It’s hard to tell and hard to breathe at all
It’s hard to walk, it’s hard to live
Ain’t gonna walk no more...
Ain’t gonna walk, ain’t gonna walk no more
It’s pretty hard to say,
How many time we’re gonna stay
Under this rule, Under this... wicked rule... of money...
Ain’t gonna walk no more...

I’m lost in the midwest, P’lice at my back,
C
They’ve lost our tracks on the last bank attack
Em
And G-men failed from stopping me.
D
It gets a river of blood to be flood by money
Em
I remember when I was a young one
C
Father was in anger, in fear and despair
Em
Billy, mother shadow, I’m fast tonight
D
I’m headed back home, work is done.
Chorus: Am
And none is the danger , and none are the law
C
And none is blood, none is fame
Am C
Yeah! Nothing will stop me, no,no, nothing
G D
'cause I'm free! 'cause I'm free!
Am C
'cause I'm free! Yeah I’m free !
G D
'cause I'm free! 'cause I'm free!
Am C
'cause I'm free! Yeah I’m free !
Em
Let's check a barroom where we can find a horn
C
Find a hot mama that is keen at hearts
Em
A speakeasy, Yeah! let’s deal the low down
D
We're headed now for our the last trip
Em
I'm free like a soldier heading off to war
C
Free to release, to defy and to live
Em
Wish I had a mother to worry over me
D
But man, she died when I was only three...
Chorus x2
