I found a girl, and I gave her a ring
She was everything I'm looking for
It's over now, and this is how
I lost the war

Well, my head got heavy as a Christmas cake
And I made a break for the door
A shot so dumb, you shot your tongue
I lost the war

But you're not the only one with a gun for a mouth
No, you're not the only one with a gun

We kept on talking 'til the morning light
And the night wasn't the night anymore
Beneath the trees, we crushed the leaves
I lost the war

But you're not the only one with a gun for a mouth
No, you're not the only one with a gun for a mouth
A gun for a mouth

You can shine and spin and kiss me when
I'm hiding from and shoot me down
But there's a red-headed angel in the wings
Singing, "lay down your soul"
It's over now, and this is how
I lost the war

But you're not the only one with a gun for a mouth
No, you're not the only one with a gun for a mouth

Yeah (x11)

But you're not the only one with a gun for a mouth
Gun for a mouth, gun for a mouth
Gun for a mouth, gun for a mouth

Gun, gun, gun
Gun for a mouth
