[Intro]
C   G   F   C
C   G   F   C

[Verse 1]
C                 G     F                        C
 From a corner so dark,   the face she seeks and finds,
C                          G          F                    C
 through the smoke and the gloom, she silently steals up behind,

[Chorus 1]
F            C         G                   C
 she quietly whispers,   you’ve a price to pay,
F               C                      G      F                     C   G   F   C
 her voice he recalls, his hand slowly falls,   there’s no walkin’ away,

[Verse 2]
C             G       F                     C
 click of the hammer,   he feels the moment quiver,
C                 G                   F                     C
 she leans in and breathes her words,   time to stand and deliver,

[Chorus 2]
F                     C       G                         C
 I’m here to take you with me,  you know I’m not Heaven sent,
F                        C                    G    F
 I’m just collecting the toll, collecting the toll,
                 C                  E   Am                   F
for the life you spent, no walkin’ away,   from the price to pay,
              C      G            F    C
for one empty casing,  one bullet spent,

[Verse 3]
C           G    F                C
 gun at his hip,   whiskey on his breath,
C              G    F                   C
 a shade of regret,   gonna be a lonely death,  she says,

[Chorus 3]
F                     C       G                         C
 I’m here to take you with me,  you know I’m not Heaven sent,
F                        C                    G    F
 I’m just collecting the toll, collecting the toll,
                 C                  E   Am                   F
for the life you spent, no walkin’ away,   from the price to pay,
              C      G            F     C
for one empty casing,  one bullet spent,

[Final Verse]
F                     C       G                              C
 I’m here to take you with me,  now hear my trigger’s intent,
F                        C                           G     F
 I’m just collecting the toll, for the innocence you stole,
               C                  E   Am             F
the bullet you spent, no walkin’ away,   no walkin’ away,
               C      G            F     C
from one empty casing,  one bullet spent,
          G      F            C    E   Am   F           C       G   F   C
one empty casing,  one bullet spent,          one empty casing, mmm.
