                    THIS IS WAR
                    EMILY KINNEY


CAPO: 3rd FRET

INTRO:
D  Em    D  Em


VERSE:
      D
Oh I know, I know, I know
                              Em
All the songs you write are about me
          D
But you changed the names

So I can’t stake my claim
            Em
You’re so greedy
       D
And I know, I know, I know
                                     Em
That you think you’re a much better writer
           D
And that might be true

But what I’ve got on you
          Em
Is I’m a fighter


CHORUS:
         D
This is war
                Em
My fingers are sore
                 D
So far from the top
                 G
But I refuse to stop
                   D
Got shakers in my eardrums
               Em
Bossing like a new gun
                 D
Baby, when it’s all done
                         G
You won’t mind that I’ve won
           D
This is a battle
             Em
You are the prize
               D
Put down that piano
                 G
Let’s start our lives
                 D
You’ve got more soldiers
                   Em
But I’ve got more passion
                 D
And I’m right behind you
               G
Just gaining traction
                D
POW! POW! POW! POW!
                 Em
BANG! BANG! BANG!  BANG!
                D
POW! POW! POW! POW!
                 Em
BANG! BANG! BANG!  BANG!


VERSE:
       D
And I know, I know, I know
                                      Em
About the lovers in your bulletproof lining
              D
They don’t intimidate
                                      Em
They’re just too bit-ah late and bad timing
        D
And I know, I know, I know
                                          Em
You’ve got your battle plan mapped out in inches
              D
But I’m not scared of you
                                       Em
I’m jumping right into these Brooklyn trenches


CHORUS:
         D
This is war
                Em
My fingers are sore
              D
I might be a masochist
                 G
Just asking for more
                             D
Cause this stage is like a standoff
                   Em
And you’re pretty tough
                  D
I’m bruised and bloody
                    G
BUT I’LL NEVER GIVE UP!
           D
This is a battle
             Em
You are the prize
               D
Put down that piano
                G
And come to my side
                    D
We’ll sing songs together
                Em
I’ll hold your hand
                      D
Make perfect-pitched babies
            G     D  G     D  G
And form a band


VERSE:
D
I don’t really want,
                               Em
I don’t really wanna fight no more
      D
I’m sweating in the sun
                              Em
Camped out with ammo at your door

Uh-oor, uh-oor, uh-oor, oh
D
I don’t really want,
                               Em
I don’t really wanna fight no more
        D
I just can’t be beat

So I will stand the heat
                               Em
Until your love, your love is sure

Baby, this is war


OUTRO:
D                  Em
  BANG! BANG! BANG!  BANG!
                D
POW! POW! POW! POW!
                 Em
BANG! BANG! BANG!  BANG!
                D
POW! POW! POW! POW!
                 Em
BANG! BANG! BANG!  BANG!
                D
POW! POW! POW! POW!
                 Em
BANG! BANG! BANG!  BANG!
