E                   C#m        B           E       A
And there isn’t any doubt it’s loaded and ready to go
    C#m                 B                E             A
Well I have twice and I don’t recall any heroes on the scene
       C#m                      B                 E             A     B
Just adrenaline and fear and a few souls who have unfortunately seen
 
[Chorus]
         E         B            E
A lot of bang bang shoot 'em up movies
E              B             E
People putting people in the ground
E         B            E
Bang bang shoot 'em up movies
         C#m
Meant to turn my head
G#
Make my heart pound
A                       E
Fiction and commerce conspire
E              G#      C#m
Please turn it off I’m tired
   A         Am                  E
Of bang bang bang shoot 'em up movies
 
[Verse 2]
E             C#m               B               E
I live in the country because I love peace and quiet
E             C#m               B            E        A
But all of my neighbors have closets full of machine guns
     C#m                     B         E              A
And every Sunday they’re out there, pretending to be Rambo
    C#m           B              E               A
And I’m in here pretending like Sunday is still sacred
 
[Bridge]
  G#m                  C#m
Conceal and carry your fear
      A               E
Don’t need no weapons here
     G#m           C#m
I’ve had all I can stand
        A           B             B7
Of the bloodthirsty leading man
 
[Verse 3]
E                        C#m    B        E
If you think there isn’t any connection between
E                    C#m      B          E              A
All the violence you see in real life and what’s on the screen
        C#m    B      E          A
Well it seems painfully clear to me
             Am            B     B7
That you’re living in a fantasy
 
[Chorus]
        C#m       B7           E
Another bang bang shoot 'em up movie
C#m         B7            E
Living room like a battle ground
  C#m       B7           E
A bang bang shoot 'em up movie
         C#m
Meant to push the envelope
G#
Make me say 'wow'
     A                    E
If I never hear gunfire again I’ll be fine
   E              B       C#m
So please turn it off I’m tired
   A         B         E    G#m  C#m
Of bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang
A         Am
Bang bang bang
