Verse 1:
And the story goes like this:
Cm                           G
Everything went numb for the money and the guns
    Ab                          Eb
And everytime he'd think it out: "There's nothing to worry about"
Fm              Cm
Get in the van, don't deviate from the plan
   Ab                                 Bb
If everything goes smooth then you'll walk away a rich man"
Cm                 G
So it begins, everybody walks in
      Ab                      Eb                     Fm
Could this be the way or the day that the underdog wins?
                      Cm
I think not, and I'll bet on the feds
  Ab                            Bb
Because the black hat men never wins in the end, so...

Pre-Chorus:

Chorus:
Cm                Ab
Ski mask (Check!), sawed off (Check!)
Eb                                Bb
Guilty conscience, fear of death (Check! check! check!)
Cm                           Ab                   Eb
Everything went numb when he stumbled upon what he thought
                        Bb
Was going to be another means to the end
Cm       G
Silence, sirens
Ab                        Bb
It all went down like his nightmare the night before
Cm
I don't want to hear
Ab
I don't want to be near
Eb                    Bb
I do what I got to do just to keep my nose clean

Post-Chorus:

Verse 3:
                      Cm
The story doesn't end here
                    G                  Ab
Don't fear for our hero ain't near the end, my friend
      Eb                           Fm
Let's take it back to how it all began:
            Cm
With a proposition
Ab                        Bb
Proposition starts with a capital "P"
       Cm                       G
"Or at least for me" is what he said to himself
       Ab                         Eb
But himself ain't a lot when he's got nothing left
   Fm                   Cm
Of what was once a man, loved and loving
   Ab                        Bb
He took that trip that turns something to nothing

Bridge:
Cm        Bb
Right and wrong
        Ab                                 Eb                     Fm
There's not a lot a difference when you're singing that poor man's song
         Cm      Ab         G          Cm
And that song it goes just a little like this:
Cm       Bb
Na na na na na na
Ab          G
   Na na na na na na na
Cm          Bb
   Na na na na na na
Ab        G
Naaa na-a naa
