Blood Money

Hey Patty Garrett, that's what I used to call you

They tell me you want me but I hear they've got you

They made you a lawman with a badge made of silver

They paid you some money to sell them my blood

A7

But you say this ain't about me, this ain't about you

Or the good and the bad times we've both been through

When the lines between brothers and justice have changed

You do what you've got to cause you can't walk away

I wonder what would have happened if you were the killer

And I was the hero, would things be the same?

Or would I have traded your life for my own life

Would I have paid your debts in your place?

A7

Well this ain't about me, this ain't about you

Or the good and the bad times we've both been through

When the lines between brothers and justice have changed

You do what you've got to cause you can't walk away

Blood money that's what I call it

'Cause money for blood ain't no fair exchange

Blood money bought and then sold you

But your conscience is all you can take to your grave
