Blood Money by Bon Jovi

Blood Money - Jon Bon Jovi

(intro)           C     G     D     G 
C                              G 
Hey Patty Garrett, that's what I used to call you.
C                           G 
They tell me you want me, but I here they've got you.
C                             G 
They made you a law man, with a badge made of silver.
D                     G 
They paid you some money to sell them my blood.

G7                     C                       G 
But you say:  This ain't about me and this ain't about you,
D                              G 
Or the good and the bad times, we've both been through.
G7           C                                G 
When the lines between brothers and justice have changed,
D                          G 
You do what you've got to, 'cause you can't walk away.

C                        G 
I wonder what would have happened if you were the killer
C                         G 
and I was the hero, would things be the same?
C                       G 
Or would I have traded your life for my own life?
D                       G 
Would I have paid your debts in your place?

G7                          C                       G 
I don't know.  But this ain't about me and this ain't about you,
D                      G 
Or the good and the bad times we've both been through.
G7            C                               G 
When the lines between brothers and justice have changed,
D                          G 
You do what you've got to, 'cause you can't walk away.


C                    G 
Blood Money, that's what I call it,
D                       G   G7 
'cause money for blood, ain't no fair exchange.
C                         G 
Blood Money, bought and then sold you,
D                          G 
but your conscience is all you can take to your grave.
