Just the Right Bullets Chords & Lyrics by Tom Waits
Just the Right Bullets
guitar chords lyrics
C7 Fm
There is a light in the forest
Eb Ab
There's a face in the tree
C7 Fm
I'll pull you out of the chorus
Eb Fm
and the first one's always free
Db Eb Fm Db Eb Fm
You can never go a hunting with just a flintlock and a hound
C7 Fm
You won't go home with a bunting
Bbm C7 Fm
if you blow a hundred rounds
It takes much more than wild courage
or you'll hit the tattered clouds
You must have just the right bullet
and the first one's always free
You must be careful in the forest
broken glass and rusty nails
If you're to bring back somehting for us
I have bullets for sale

Why be a fool when you can chase away
your blind and your gloom
I have blessed each one of these bullets
and they shine just like a spoon
To have sixty silver wishes
is a small price to pay
They'll be your private little fishes
and they'll never swim away
I just want you to be happy
That's my only little wish
I'll fix your wagon and your musket
and the spoon will have his dish
And I shudder at the thought
of your poor empty hunter's pouch
So I'll keep the wind from your barrel
and bless the roof of your house
