Out Past the Moat - Vandaveer(capo 5)

1.
got my guns, i got 'em both…
now's as good a time as any…
2.
tell my brothers i love 'em both…
mama told me to say so…
3.
one for papa, one for ma…
one stuck in the middle of it all…
4.
now i'm no outlaw, i'm no saint…
just a boy with too many complaints…
5.
but if i could keep it simple if i could keep it sane…
but i can't keep my pictures inside their frames…
6.
i'd count my blessings if i could count the days…
but i can't find my fingers through the foggy haze…
7.
so i storm the sidewalk with a lump in my throat…
can't steer my ship out past the moat…
8.
i got my guns, i got 'em both…
now's as good a time as any…
