intro: Dm........
Dm E G D# 
Dm E Gm D#

Dm
My sixteen, locked and loaded

All fear has been avoided
G
You say the words and my weapon is drawn
Dm
This one could be my last time

Some people call it war crime
Gm                                     A
I may be staring down a lethal sight

(To die)
Dm                       Gm
Nothing shocks you like a bullet hole
                       Dm
Leaving my fear on the danger line
                       Gm
Suffering a man should never know
                        Dm
Leaving my faith on the danger line

( Dm  E  Gm  D# )

Dm
I do this for my family

My daughter loves her daddy
G
Too many talk down on things they don't know
Dm
With colors never faded(1stchords.com)

Reckless and unabated
Gm                                      A
They may take me but never take us all

(I'll crawl)
Dm                        Gm
Nothing shocks you like a bullet hole
                       Dm
Leaving my fear on the danger line
                       Gm
Suffering a man should never know
                        Dm
Leaving my faith on the danger line

I know what you're thinking
      ?                  
I've been there before
A#                F         C                      Dm
So think of the times, the time we spent laughing away
A#               F        A
So think of the times at home
 
(Life without a care)
 
A#                           F
Now I find myself in my own blood
(Never thought I'd lay in my own blood)

     C                          Dm
The damage done is far beyond repair
 A#                         F
I never put my faith in up above
(Never had much faith in up above)

    A
But now, I'm hoping someone's there


A#                                 F
I never meant to leave this world alone
  C                                                Dm
I never meant to (1stchords.com)hurt the ones who cared
     A#                                    F
And all this time I thought we'd just grow old
     A
You know, no one said it's fair

A#                           F
Tell my baby girl that "It's alright"
              C           Dm
I've sung my last song today
            A#                F           A
Remind the lord to leave his light on for me

I'm free
