Verse 1:
C/GC/G  G+G           Dadd4/A
  And another one bites the dust
    E minorEm          C/GC/G
  Oh, why can I not conquer love?
     G+G                Dadd4/A
  And I might have thought that we were one
       E minorEm            C/GC/G
  Wanted to fight this war without weapons
     G+G             Dadd4/A
  And I want it, I want my life so bad
  E minorEm           C/GC/G
  There were so many red flags
    G+G           Dadd4/A
  And another one bites the dust
   E minorEm            C/GC/G
  Oh let's be clear I trust no one


Pre-Chorus:
      G+G      Dadd4 E minorEm

Chorus:
    C majorC        G+G        Dadd4

  E minorEm
  But your blade, it might be too sharp
  C majorC          G+G          Dadd4
  I'm like a rubber band until you pull too hard
    E minorEm
  And I may snap when I move close
  C majorC         G+G  Dadd4 E minorEm
  You won't see me fall apart
     C majorC      G+G    Dadd4 E minorEm
  'Cause I've got an elastic heart

  Yeah, let's be clear, won't close my eyes
    G+G          Dadd4
  And I know that I can survive
    E minorEm             C/GC/G
  I'll walk through fire to save my life
        G+G         Dadd4/A
  And I want it, I want my life so bad
    E minorEm         C/GC/G
  I'm doin' everythin' I can
    G+G          Dadd4/A
  And another one bites the dust
    E minorEm          C/GC/G
  It's hard to lose a chosen one
