Intro:
C/G G Dadd4/A Em
C/G G Dadd4/A


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


Pre-Chorus:
      G      Dadd4 Em
  You did not break me
C/G     G      Dadd4/A
  I'm still fighting for peace


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


Post-Chorus:
  C/G     G     Dadd4/A
  I've got an elastic heart


Verse 2:
C/G  G             Dadd4/A
  And I will stay up through the night
                    C/G
  Yeah, let's be clear, won't close my eyes
    G          Dadd4
  And I know that I can survive
    Em             C/G
  I'll walk through fire to save my life
        G         Dadd4/A
  And I want it, I want my life so bad
    Em         C/G
  I'm doin' everythin' I can
    G          Dadd4/A
  And another one bites the dust
    Em          C/G
  It's hard to lose a chosen one


Pre-Chorus:
      G      Dadd4 Em/B

C/G     G     Dadd4/A Em
  I'm still fighting for peace
