F#
                      D#m  Bbm
I'm feeling kind of edgy
   C#                                     F#
My heart beats louder when you console me
                      D#m  Bbm
I'm feeling pretty crazy
        C#                             F#
It's because you caused me so much fear

                        D#m  Bbm
Words they come in too quick
    C#          F#
Why now I don't speak
                      D#m  Bbm
I'm treadin' oh so lightly
      C#                            F#
I'm giving up, why don't you understand?

                    D#m
A princess needs to be
                Bbm
Treated like a queen
                C#
And given everything
                       F#
So please don't pick a fight
                    D#m
Gonna have to run tonight
                   Bbm
This happens every time
                 C#
I'm burning up inside

Whoa


B              F#
Don't start a war
               C#
Don't start a war
Bbm      B
When you
                    F#
Don't wanna start a war
                    C#
Don't wanna start a war
Bbm                                B
I don't know what I'm here waiting for

                        F#
I don't want to start a war
                 C#
It only hurts me more
Bbm                       B
Back off, or I'll break us
                    F#
Don't wanna start a war
               C#
Start a war, baby
Bbm                   B

Bbm

F#
                          D#m  Bbm
I gave you everything so sweet
   C#                          F#
I gave you everything I had in me
                         D#m  Bbm
My love for you runs so deep
   C#                                    F#
But you hurt me then and don't you understand

                    D#m
A princess needs to be
                Bbm
Treated like a queen
                C#
And given everything
                       F#
So please don't pick a fight
                    D#m
Gonna have to run tonight
                   Bbm
This happens every time
