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

        Em
   And I may snap when I move close

   You won't see me fall apart

   'Cause I've got an elastic heart
