Bullet And A Target Citizen Cope
Hey this is my first tab. I put it up because its 100% right unlike the others. I
lifted it off a YouTube Vid of Citizen Cope playing it. Its easy, the same chords
cycle over and over again for the whole song. Just change the strumming pattern a
bit for the Chorus vs the Verses.
CHORDS:
G 320022
F# 133200
C x32010
A# x13300
C x32010
Intro (play twice): G F# C A# C
(Use the same chords in the same order for the rest of the song).

And it won't be long before
F# C A# C
You're pulling yourself away
But what you've done here
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won't be long before
You're pulling yourself away
I've been knowing her for years
I've been seeing her for years
She got dark, dark wavy hair
With a voice like she just don't care
She got a skirt with a halter top
She's got a dad who never gave a f**k
She drinks a beer with a proper shot
She got knocked up in a pickup truck
But she got engaged when she was nineteen
To this dude who was acting insane
Had a .45 that he always cleaned
Said one day one day one too many days
Now she ducked and she ran away
Never to be heard from, never to be seen
I check the cover of a magazine
I'm just wondering how, just wondering how
But what you've done here
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won't be long before
You're pulling yourself away
