Blue Ruin Acoustic Live by Mandolin Orange Guitar Chords

[Intro]
Dmaj7 Amaj7 D A x2

[Verse 1]
A
One morning after drinking
Ab A
Heavy in the night
D A D A
Every inch of my poor bones seemed to ache and moan in wait
Bm
Cause all our troubles come tomorrow
D Amaj7
We’ll be gone and then it’s on to Christmas Day

[Pre-Chorus]
A
If Jesus had been born
Ab A D A
Just eleven days before
D
Would the world have stopped to see

At least those on the street
Amaj7 D A
Headed for Newtown
Bm
And of all those on their way
D
Could the miracle have made
A D A
One lay his guns down?

[Instrumental Chorus]
Dmaj7 Amaj7
Ooooo

Dmaj7 Amaj7

[Verse 2]
A
That trigger stole his mind
Ab A D A
How am I to blame
D Amaj7 D A
I bet you never even aimed at one
Bm
There’s too many people killing people
D
To put an end to evil
A D A
What can be done?

[Pre-Chorus]
D
Well for now who’d like to tell me
Dbm Gbm
On that morning when 27 fell
Bm
How any lesson in counting
D A
Could ever, ever amount to watching them fall
E
And why worst of all
D A D
Come Christmas morning
Gbm
They’ll still be gone

[Instrumental Chorus]
Dmaj7 Amaj7 D A
Oooo…yeah
Dmaj7 Amaj7 D A
Oooo…Oooo
Dmaj7 Amaj7 Dmaj7
Dmaj7 Amaj7

[Outro]
A
One morning after drinking
Ab A
Heavy in the night
Dmaj7 Amaj7 D A
I stopped to take a look at the crook that stole this holiday
Bm
Well this Christmas
D
My only wish is
Amaj7 D A D A
We put these guns away
