Shinedown - 45

i noticed the chords on some of the other links were off , and i decided to put
together a correct version . played along to the song , sounds good .

i don’t take credit for this , its mix and matched from the others who have posted .

chords used :
– Em
– D/F#
– G
– Csus2
– G7m/C
– Am
– F#

A C can be substituted for the Csus2 and G7m/C to simplify .

| Em D/F# | G – | Csus2 | G7m/C |

[ verse 1 ]
Em D/F# G
send away for a priceless gift

send away for a perfect world

in these times of doing what you’re told

whatever happened to the young man’s heart .

and i’m staring down the barrel of A 45

swimming through the ashes of another life .

staring down the barrel of A 45 .
