Whenever Kindness Fails

	作词 : Keen

	Intro: D Bm D Bm
	Verse 1:
	D Bm
	Crossed the desert in a dining car
	D Bm
	In the spring of '91
	D Bm
	Met some people drinkin' at the bar,
	A
	They were laughin', havin' fun
	Told 'em that I hadn't heard the joke
	That was so hilarious
	They said that I was just a dumb cowpoke
	I didn't want to make a fuss
	Chorus:
	G A
	So I shot them down, one by one
	D G
	And left them 'long the rails
	D
	I only use my gun
	A Bm
	Whenever kindness fails
	Verse 2:
	Moon was in the sign of Scorpio
	The sun was at my back
	I didn't know how far the train would go
	Till the law would find my track
	Saw the brakeman and the engineer
	Drinking wine and eating brie
	I asked them who would brake and who would steer
	They started pointing back at me
	Chorus
	Solo: Repeat chords in chorus
	Verse 3:
	I only have a momment to explain
	Just a chance to let you know
	When it's time to board that train
	There are 2 ways you can go.
	You can ride the wind into the sun
	Feel a cool wind on your face
	Or you can laugh into a loaded gun
	And you'll likely lose your place
	Chorus:
	Yeah I shot them down, one by one
	And left them 'long the rails
	I only use my gun
	Whenever kindness fails
	I shot them down, one by one
	And left them 'long the rails
	When I use my gun
	That lonesome whistle wails
	Outro: D Bm (repeat)
