      F#m   A
Loyalty
    E               B           F#m   A      E   B
Has always been a two player game,      yeah
                F#m    A
But you played me
     E               B           F#m    A
And now I can't look at you the same
        E       B
What an awful shame


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
 F#m   A
(Ooh,  ah)
  E                    B
Another one bites the dust
 F#m   A
(Ooh,  ah)
     E                B
Somebody that I used to trust
 F#m   A
(Ooh,  ah)
     E                  B
And now there's no more us
        F#m
And it hurts, yeah, it hurts
        B
But I know what I deserve, so

🎸 Chorus:
  F#m               A
Thank you for the knife
      E          B
The knife in my back
F#m             A
Almost took my life
    E           B
Now it's in my hand
         F#m             A
And I'll use it like you used me
        E                 B            F#m    A    E    B
Cut you off and feel no cruelty bout that


🎸 Verse 2:
       F#m   A
Funny how
     E            B          F#m    A    E    B
The tower that I put you in falls
       F#m    A       E                    B          F#m    A
And I see now, your true colours weren't that true at all
         E         B
And it's all your fault


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
 F#m   A
(Ooh,  ah)

Another one bites the dust

Somebody that I used to trust
 F#m   A
(Ooh,  ah)
     E                  B
And now there's no more us
        F#m
And it hurts, yeah, it hurts
        B
But I know what I deserve, so

Thank you for the knife
     E            B
For watching me bleed
       F#m                 A
'Cause I've been way too nice
       E             B
Now I don't have to be
         F#m             A
And I'll use it like you used me

 Thank you for making me see just what I'm worth
F#m        A        E       B
 I almost let it defeat me
          F#m                  B
Yeah, I know it's supposed to hurt
