Song

Just correcting some mistakes from an almost 20 year old tab by Todd Obermiller.
This song is also easier if you put a capo on the fourth, see the relative chord shapes at the bottom.
Intro
   
   
   
   
Verse 1
Shot his mother down
With a gun that he had found
Dragged her by the hair
And he sat her in a chair
Chorus
Knew that he was wrong 
Now all his friends are gone
Terry's only care
Was to be a millionaire
Verse 2
At school he played the fool
And on linoleum he ruled
The other children stared
And he would kick and pull their hair
*Chorus*
Bridge
Remember Terry's song
And your future won't be long
Be happy where you are
Or as lonely as a star
Final Chorus (words are same as bridge but the chords are the same as the chorus)
Remember Terry's song 
And your future won't be long
Be happy where you are
Or as lonely as a star
Verse 3
Be happy where you are
Or as lonely as a star
Terry's only care
Was to be a millionaire
