“badge & gun” ( by : john mayer ) – – capo 7
chords by @corbettwalsh

( C ) give my badge and gun / give me the ( F ) road that i may ( C ) run
give me that ( C ) peaceful – wandering free i used to ( G ) know
i’ve ( C ) waited all i can / but i’m just ( F ) not a patient ( D ) man
and i’ve been ( C ) hiding here for ( G ) seven months or ( C ) so

( F ) hand me down my coat and hat / and ( Am ) grab the winter one at that
you ( F ) never know how long i’ll be ( G ) away

( C ) give me my badge and gun / give me the ( F ) songs that i once ( C ) sung
give me those ( C ) jet – black , kick – back , lay down nights ( G ) alone
this ( C ) house is safe and warm / but i was ( F ) made to chase the ( D ) storm
taking the ( C ) whole world on with ( G ) big ol’ empty ( C ) arms

( F ) tell my friends i tried my best / that ( Am ) one day i just up and left
they ( F ) probably saw it coming ( G ) anyway

[ oohs : C , F , C , G , C , F , D , C , G , C ]

the ( F ) lock is on the silver door / i ( Am ) can’t remember what it’s for
i ( F ) ain’t been down those stairs in oh so ( G ) long

( C ) give me my badge and gun / give me the ( F ) road that i must ( C ) run
give me that ( C ) peaceful – wandering free i used to ( G ) know
the ( C ) copy of your key is hanging ( F ) where it used to ( D ) be
good as you’ve ( C ) always been to ( G ) me
the ( C ) life i need to ( G ) lead
is ( C ) somewhere out there ( G ) calling over those ( C ) hills ( F ) ( C ) [ end ]
