Six O’Clock News – Kathleen Edwards
             C              Am            F           C(  C    Am   F  C)
Copper on the corner and he loaded two rounds
                C                  Am          F      C(  C    Am   F  C)
And I can't even cross the line to talk you down
                C                  Am          F      C(  C    Am   F  C)
And Peter, sweet baby, where'd you get that gun?
                        C                   Am            F           C(  C    Am   F  C)
You spend half your life trying to turn the other half around
And I Ftried to come clean, but I Cguess it's no use
Your Fface is all over Csix o'clock news
They Fcleared the street and then they Cclosed the schools
I Dmcan't even get Finside
(  C    Am   F  C)      (  C    Am   F  C)
                 C              Am           F           C(  C    Am   F  C)
Did you lose your head when the farm went down?
                         C              Am          F           C(  C    Am   F  C)
Or was is when your daddy died after he moved to town
               C                Am            F           C(  C    Am   F  C)
And I know your momma calls you good for nothin’
                      C                Am                F           C(  C    Am   F  C)
She says her baby is a failure and she don't want you callin’
Chorus
                C                   Am                      F              C(  C    Am   F  C)
And Peter, sweet baby, there's just something that I got ta say to you
                   C          Am        F       C(  C    Am   F  C)
I’m gonna have your baby this coming June
                     C              Am         F           C(  C    Am   F  C)
We could get a little place down by Gilmour Park
                     C                 Am        F           C(  C    Am   F  C)
You could do a little time and save my broken heart
Chorus
And I Ftried to come clean, but I Cguess it's no use
FCopper went ahead and he just Cshot you through
Now you're Flying dead on the Cavenue
DmI can't feel my broken Fheart
                         Dm              F(  C    Am   F  C) (  C    Am   F  C)
And I can't feel my broken heart
