Lyrics

(A5)Light ning strikes in side my chest to keep me (Dsus2)up at night. (A5)Dream of ways to make you un der stand my pain. Clouds of sul fur in the air, bombs are fall ing ev ’ry where; it’s (Dsus2)heart break war fare. Once you want it to be gin, no one real ly ev er wins in (Dsus2)heart break war fare. If you want more love, why don’t you say so? If you want more love, why don’t you (Dmaj7)say so? (A5)Drop his name, in push it in and twist the (Dsus2)knife a gain. (A5)Watch my face as I pre tend to feel no pain. Clouds of sul fur in the air, bombs are fall ing ev ’ry where; it’s (Dsus2)heart break war fare. Once you want it to be gin, no one real ly ev er wins in (Dsus2)heart break war fare. If you want more love, why don’t you say so? If you want more love, why don’t you (Dmaj7)say so? Just (Fmaj7)say so. How come the on ly way to know how high you get (F6)me is to (G)see how far I fall? God on ly knows how much I’d (Fmaj7)love you if you let (F6)me, but I (G)can’t break through it all. It’s a heart, heart break. I don’t care if we don’t sleep at all to night; let’s just (Dsus2)fix this whole thing now. I swear to God we’re gon na get it right if you (Dsus2)lay your weap on down. Red wine and Am bi en, you’re talk ing shit a gain. It’s (Dsus2)heart break war fare. Good to know it’s all a game. Dis ap point ment has a name; it’s (Dsus2)heart break, heart break. It’s (Dsus2)heart break war fare. It’s (Dsus2)heart break war fare. It’s (Dsus2)heart break war fare. It’s (Dsus2)heart break war fare.
