Am  F  Dm  E

[Verse 1]
       Am              F
Take a breath, take it deep
         Dm                E
Calm yourself, she said to me
       Am                 F
If you play, you play for keeps
         Dm               E
Take the gun and count to three
             Am          F
I'm sweating now, moving slow
           Dm                E
No time to think, my turn to go

[Chorus]
                   Am    F
And you can see my heart beating
G                         Dm
You can see it through my chest
             Am               F
And I'm terrified but I'm not leaving
G                       Dm
I know I must pass this test
E                Am       F     Dm    E
So just pull the trigger

[Verse 2]
      Am            F
Say a prayer to yourself
           Dm
Close your eyes
             E
Sometimes it helps
       Am          F
Then I get a scary thought
          Dm               E
That he's here, he's never lost

[Chorus]
                   Am    F
And you can see my heart beating
G                         Dm
You can see it through my chest
             Am               F
And I'm terrified but I'm not leaving
G                       Dm
I know I must pass this test
E                Am       F     Dm    E
So just pull the trigger

[Chorus]
                   Am    F
And you can see my heart beating
G                         Dm
You can see it through my chest
             Am               F
And I'm terrified but I'm not leaving
G                       Dm
I know I must pass this test
   E                            Am
So I just pull the trigger
