F#
I'll stand
      C#
On my own two feet
G#/C         F#
Against you girl
  C#               G#/C
I just can't walk away
I said
F#                    C#  G#/C
I can't take it that easy
                F#
Wanna break you down tonight
            C#            G#/C
Don't wanna waste another day

         F#            G#
And it's not over just yet

Chorus:
Give me this
C#                A#m
One last fighting chance
             G#
To crash the wall
            F#
I'll get to you
          C#
You are a war
            A#m
Worth dying for
  G#
Tonight
Give me this
C#                A#m
One last fighting chance
          G#
To be the kid
              F#
Who caved you in
     D#m
It'd be so easy
   F#     G#
To lose myself to you

Quiet
I will be
So sure
Calling your bluff
I think you lost
Your will to fight

And you know
I'll storm
Through your castles doors
Cause you know that I'm good for you
And you're scared of what you'll find

A love you won't regret

Chorus

F#      G#
So open up
      A#m      G#
Your friendly fire
F#         G#
And let me be
    A#m         G#
The kill you're missing
F#          G#
Don't wanna see you
A#m        G#
Close your eyes
F#            G#
Until this is over

Chorus
