Kill A Word Ukulele tab

	  
Intro.:  (D) x 4 bars 

  Bm 
If I could kill a word and watch it die 
   D 
I'd poison "never," shoot "goodbye" 
  Bm                                   D 
And beat "regret" when I felt I had the nerve 
    Bm 
Yeah, I'd pound "fear" to a pile of sand 
      D 
Choke "lonely" out with my bare hands 
   Bm                                  D 
And I'd hang "hate" so that it can't be heard 
  Bm      G                   D 
If I could only kill a word  

Bm 
I'd take "brokeness" out back 
   D 
And break "heartbreak," stand there and laugh 
     Bm                                      D 
Right in its face while shootin' it the bird  
   Bm 
I'd put "upset" down in its place 
   D 
I'd squeeze the life out of "disgrace" 
   Bm                                  D 
Lay "over" under six cold feet of dirt  
  Bm      G                  D 
If I could only kill a word  

 
              Bm 
Give me sticks, give me stones 
       G 
Bend my body, break my bones 
   D                                  A 
Use staff and rod to turn me black and blue 
         Bm 
'Cause you can't unhear, you can't unsay 
      G 
But if it were up to me to change 
D                                                 A 
I'd turn "lies" and "hate" to "love" and "truth"  
  Bm      G                 D 
If I could only kill a word  

(verse 2) 
Bm 
I'd knock out "temptation"'s teeth 
   D 
I'd sever "evil," let it bleed 
   Bm                                            D 
Then light up "wicked," stand and watch it burn  
Bm 
I'd take "vice" and I'd take "vile" 
D 
Tie 'em up there with "hostile" 
Bm                                         D 
Hang 'em high and leave 'em for the birds  
  Bm      G                 D 
If I could only kill a word  

 
                 Bm 
So give me sticks, give me stones 
       G 
Bend my body, break my bones 
   D                                  A 
Use staff and rod to turn me black and blue 
          Bm 
'Cause you can't unhear, you can't unsay 
      G 
But if it were up to me to change 
D                                                 A 
I'd turn "lies" and "hate" to "love" and "truth"  
  Bm      G                  D 
If I could only kill a word  
  Bm      G                      D 
If I could only --- kill a word
