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


Chorus:
       C                G               Dadd4

   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
