[Intro]
C#m
 
[Verse 1]
C#m
Dateline early Sunday morning
E
 Shots ring out without a warning
B                              F#
 No one seems to even blink in this town
 
[Verse 2]
C#m
Two dead and a baby missing
E
 Sirens screaming in the distance
B                                F#
 A mother pleading bring my baby home now
 
[PreChorus 1]
        C#m
For the pink slip of an SUV
  B
A night cut down with tragedy
    F#                          A
His defence another generation breakdown
 
Ab5 Ab5      Ab5 Ab5
       Yeah,         Yeah
 
[Chorus]
C#m           B
 What is the distance 
F#m              A
 between a bullet and a gun
E             B
 God are you listening 
F#m               A
 Or have you just given up
 
C#m (like the intro)
 
[Verse 3]
C#m
Corporate countries go to war
E
 Behind the lies they're fighting for
    B                                      F#
And black gold from an old king's soul won his round
 
[PreChorus 2]
C#m
How can someone take a life
       B
In the name of god and say it's right
F#
How does money lead to greed
     A
When there's still hungry mouths to feed
 
Ab5 Ab5      Ab5 Ab5
       Yeah,         Yeah
 
[Chorus]
C#m           B
 What is the distance 
F#m              A
 between a bullet and a gun
E             B
 God are you listening 
F#m              A
 Or have you just given up
E           B
 We need forgiveness
F#m            A
 We all need a lot of love....
 
C#m E B Bb5
 
[Bridge]
A              B
 We need some hope
           C#m
We need it now
           B
A little faith
             A
man help me out
               E
I'll learn to pray
                  B
But it's too late now

[Chorus]
C#m           B
 What is the distance 
F#m              A
 between a bullet and a gun
E             B
 God are you listening 
F#m              A
 Or have you just given up
 
E             B
 What is the distance 
F#m              A
 between a bullet and a gun
E            B
 We need forgiveness
F#m            A
 We all need a lot of love...
