Sweet Child in time

2. verse (as first)

Sweet child in time youґll see the line
The line thatґs drawn between the good and the bad
See the blind man shooting at the world
Bullets flying taking toll
If youґve been bad, Lord I bet you have
And youґve not been hit by flying lead
Youґd better close your eyes and bow your head
(And) wait for the ricochet

G G Am / G G Am / F F G / G G Am
