           E
I've been kicked right down
I've been spat in the face
I've been too weighed down
To the lowest place
           B
I've been lied to, shamed to
I have been disgraced
Been ex-communicated from every holy place

           C#m
I've been beat up and robbed
I've been left for dead
For the way I look
For the things I said
       A
When trouble thinks it's found us
The world falls down around us
I promise baby you won't ever
You won't ever feel a thing

Chorus:
     E        B               D
Cause I will take it on the chin
A
Eh, for you
So they're cuts and bruises over my skin
I promise you won't feel a thing

      E              C#m
Cause everything the world could throw
       B
I'll stand in front.
                         A C#m
I'll take the blow for you.
     B
For you.

I've been put on the street
I've been left in the cold
Had my dreams held up
Had them shot full of holes
I've been laughed at, hurt
Been the butt of the joke
I've been lit up in flames
I have gone down in smoke

I've been stabbed in the back
While they promised the Earth
Tryna keep my head high, for all I'm worth
Outside I'm double glazing
I know a war is raging
I promise baby, you won't ever
You won't ever feel a thing

Chorus

C#m
And if I fall here
At least you know my dear that
B
I would die for you
Promise you won't ever feel a thing
A
If I fall here
At least you know my dear that
I would die for you
Promise you won't ever feel a thing

Chorus:
Cause I will take it on the chin, eh, for you
So lay your cuts and bruises over my skin
I promise you won't feel a thing, no
Cause everything the world could throw
I'll stand in front, I'll take the blow
For you
For you
Yeah, everything the world could throw
I'll take the sticks, I'll take the stones
For you
For you
