Gunshy Lyrics by Read Southall

Six String Sorrow

2015

[Verse 1]
You're a lot of fun, you're young and
Good lookin' too
And I don't mind at all waking up next to you
We've been running around
The past few weeks
'til you stopped one night and said to me
Where are we, and where's this goin'
I rolled over and said I don't know
Why we gotta put a label on somethin'
You said grow up and walked out my door
[Chorus]
Sorry darlin' if I've been a little gun-shy
There ain't nothin' wrong with you
It just scares me to death layin' by your side
After what the last one put me through
You'd be gun-shy too
[Verse 2]
Now you're mad as hell, got that half ton wound tight
Already decided that you're drinkin' tonight
Don't really feel like this is all on me
Hell I told you the truth and I set you free
[Chorus]
Sorry darlin' if I've been a little gun-shy
There ain't nothin' wrong with you
It just scares me to death layin' by your side
After what the last one put me through
You'd be gun-shy too
[Verse 3]
I'm not sayin' it won't eventually work out
I'm just sayin' not right now
[Chorus]
Sorry darlin' if I've been a little gun-shy
There ain't nothin' wrong with you
It just scares me to death layin' by your side
After what the last one put me through
You'd be gun-shy too
