1. verse
Sweet Child in time
you'll see the line
The line that's drawn between
The good and the bad
See the blind man
Shooting at the world
Bullets flying
taking toll
If you've been bad,
Lord I bet you have
And you've not been hit
by flying lead
You'd better close your eyes
and bow your head
Wait for the ricochet
(Same chord sequence repeated three times
with the infamous screams over)
(INSTRUMENTAL)
2. verse (as first)
Sweet child in time you'll see the line
The line that's drawn between the good and the bad
See the blind man shooting at the world
Bullets flying taking toll
If you've been bad, Lord I bet you have
And you've not been hit by flying lead
You'd better close your eyes and bow your head
And wait for the ricochet
(Same chord sequence repeated (four times?) with the infamous screams over)
(INSTRUMENTAL - "FINALE")
(Screams and ad lib)
