When All You Got Is A Hammer

Am There's a bible on the table C There's a bottle on the shelf F Am There's a woman in the kitchen E7 Crying quietly to herself Am Down the hallway, in the bedroom C He can hear his children wail F Am When all you got is a hammer E7 Am Everything looks like a nail Well he came home from the desert C With a medal on his chest F Am Like a hero, like a champion E7 But he felt more like a guest Am Now he sleeps with one eye open C And he wakes up scared as hell F Am And all he's got is a hammer E7 Am And everything looks like a nail C Well, they show you how to shoot G And they show you how to k**l Dm But they don't show you what to do E7 With this hole that you can't fill Am So you dwell in the darkness of your soul C Like Jonah in the belly of the whale F Am And all you got is a hammer E7 Am And everything looks like a nail INSTRUMENTAL: Am C F Am E7 (2x) Am When a good man in a bad dream C Can't make it on his own F Am When he can't feed his own damn children E7 On the money that he brings home Am And the deck is stacked against him C And he knows he's bound to fail F Am And all he's got is a hammer E7 Am Everything looks like a nail C Well, they show you how to shoot G And they show you how to k**l Dm But they don't show you what to do E7 With this hole that you can't fill Am So you dwell in the darkness of your soul C Like Jonah in the belly of the whale F Am And all you got is a hammer E7 Am And everything looks like a nail Yeah, all you got is a hammer E7 N.C. Am And everything looks like a nail OUTRO: Am
