.45 by Shinedown
This is probably one of Shinedowns best songs. I really enjoyed the time I spent working
it. I have included the intro picking tab as well. If you have any questions, comments,
Thanks and Enjoy!

Intro:
[Verse]
Send away for a priceless gift
One not subtle, one not on the list
Send away for a perfect world
One not simply, so absurd
In these times of doing what you're told
You keep these feelings, no one knows
[Pre chorus]
What ever happened to the young man's heart
Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart
[Chorus]
And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45,
Swimming through the ashes of another life
No real reason to accept the way things have changed
Staring down the barrel of a 45
[Verse]
Send a message to the unborn child
Keep your eyes open, for a while
In a box high up on the shelf, left for you, no one else
There's a piece of a puzzle known as life
Wrapped in guilt, sealed up tight
[Pre chorus]
What ever happened to the young man's heart
Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart
[CHORUS]
(cut short)
Everyone's pointing their fingers
(short)
Always condemning me
And nobody knows what I believe
(short)
I believe
[CHORUS]
