100% right this is the electric version here it goes.
G (---------rest----------) C G C/G G
Look out, Mama, there's a white boat coming up the river
C G C/G G
With a big red beacon, and a flag, and a man on the rail
C
I think you'd better call John,
Bm C
'Cause it don't look like they're here to deliver the mail
Bm7 C
And it's less than a mile away
Bm7 C
I hope they didn't come to stay
Bm7 C
It's got numbers on the side and a gun
D
And it's making big waves

VERSE:
Daddy's rifle in my hand felt reassuring
He told me, Red means run, son, numbers add up to nothing
But when the first shot hit the docks I saw it coming
Raised my rifle to my eye
Never stopped to wonder why
Then I saw black
And my face splashed in the sky

VERSE:
Shelter me from the powder and the finger
Cover me with the thought that pulled the trigger
Just think of me as one you'd never figured
Would fade away so young
With so much left undone
Remember me to my love
I know I'll miss her
