Intro:
Am G F x2 G

Verse:
Am                                         G
 What could be so bad you'd think about walking out
                 F
 How could you take one step from the life we built
    C                     G
 And not want to turn around
          Am
 We can scream, we can fight
                                     G
 We can spend the night sleeping in separate rooms
                          F
 Checkmate baby, waiting on the next move
                     G          C
 But it ain't about win or lose

Chorus:
F                        C
 I'll keep my heart wide open
F
 Take a bullet, take the blame
      G        Am   G
 Anything for you, you
F                                        C
 And I would chase every dream you can dream of
F                                   G      Am    G
 Ain't a part of me I wouldn't give up for you, you
              Dm
 Through the fire and the rain
             C                   F*
 You're the one my heart keeps chasing
                  Am      G
 Even when it's breaking

Verse:
Am                                               G
 Half a bottle of wine, the words fly that you can't take back
         F
 Those sweet red lips firing shots out baby
              C              G
 'Cause you want to make me mad
   Am
 Throw me your keys, say you're gonna leave
              G
 Shatter me piece by piece
                            F
 And girl you're trying to cut me deep
                         G            C
 When you say we never meant anything

Chorus:
F                         C
 I'll keep my heart wide open
F
 Take a bullet, take the blame
      G        Am   G
 Anything for you, you
F                                         C
  And I would chase every dream you can dream of
F                                     G     Am    G
  Ain't a part of me I wouldn't give up for you, you
               Dm
  Through the fire and the rain
              C                   F
  You're the one my heart keeps chasing
    G              Am
  Even when it's breaking

  And I would chase every dream you can dream of

  You're the one my heart keeps chasing
    G               Am     G  F
  Even when it's breaking    breaking
