|G |Am |F |F |
Combat, I’m ready for combat
|G |Am |F |F |
I saw I don't want that, but what if I do?
|G |Am |F |F |
'Cause cruelty wins in the movies
|G |Am |F |F |
I've got a hundred thrown out speeches I almost said to you
|C |C |G |G |
Easy they come, easy they go, I jump from the train, I ride off alone
|Am |Am |F |F |
I never grew up, it’s getting so old, help me hold onto you
|C |C G |F |F |
I've been the archer, I’ve been the prey
|Am |Am G |F |F |
Who could ever leave me darling, but who could stay?
|G 4nAm|% |F |F |
Dark side, I search for your dark side
|G 4nAm|% |F |F |
But what if I'm all right, right, right, right here?
|G 4nAm|% |F |F |
And I cut off my nose just to spite my face
|G 4nAm|% |F |F |
Then hate my reflection for years and years
|C |C |G |G |
I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost, the room is on fire, invisible smoke
|Am |Am |F |F |
And all my heroes, die all alone, help me hold onto you
|C |C G |F |F |
I’ve been the archer, I've been the prey
|Am |Am G |F |F |
Screaming who could ever leave me darling, but who could stay?
|C |C |
'Cause they see right through me, they see right through me
|G |G |
They see right through me, can you see right through me?
|Am |Am |
They see right through, they see right through me
|F |F |
I see right through me, I see right through me
|C |C |G |G |
All the king's horses, all the king's men, couldn't put me together again
|Am |Am |F |F |
'Cause all of my enemies, started out friends, help me hold onto you
|C |C G |F |F |
I've been the archer, I’ve been the prey
|Am |Am G |F |F |
Who could ever leave me darling, but who could stay?
|C |C G |F |F |
Who could stay? Who could stay?
|Am |Am G |F |F |
Who could stay, you could stay
|C |C G |F |F |
You could stay
|Am |Am G |F |F |
Combat, I’m ready for combat
|C |
