[Intro] Bm D G
Bm D D
[Primeira Parte]
Bm D G
My father taught my home is where the hurt is
Bm D G
So I built a fortress where I lived alone
Bm D G
He said ships where never meant to have a harbor
Bm D G
So I’ve worn his armor, I’ve fought and flown
[Refrão]
A
I was raised a soldier
Put my weapons down to hold you
Bm
Is a kiss an act of war?
F#m
I just tried to keep you warm
G
Even though I couldn’t stay
No, you never looked away
A
Now I can’t look away
G
Would you meet me in the middle?
D/F#
Could we both stop keeping score?
A
There’s a battle I must fight alone
Bm
But it’s you I’m fighting for
G
If I call off the battalion
D/F#
Break my walls down stone by stone
A
Tear down my defenses
Bm
I could build your heart a home
G A
And if I did
(Bm)
Would you come home?
( Bm D G )
( Bm D D )
[Segunda Parte]
Bm D G
Together we could quiet all the noises
Bm D
Drown out the voices
G
Play our own song
Bm D G
Boys becoming men under the desert sky
Bm D G
But something dark inside said it was wrong
[Refrão]
A
I was raised a soldier
Put my weapons down to hold you
Bm
Is a kiss an act of war?
F#m
I just tried to keep you warm
G
Even though I couldn’t stay
No, you never looked away
A
Now I won't look away
G
Would you meet me in the middle?
D/F#
Could we both stop keeping score?
A
There’s a battle I must fight alone
Bm
But it’s you I’m fighting for
G
If I call off the battalion
D/F#
Break my walls down stone by stone
A
Tear down my defenses
Bm
I could build your heart a home
G A
And if I did
Bm
Would you come home?
[Ponte]
Em
I still find my father’s shrapnel
G D A
Buried beneath my skin
Em G
I’d begun to heal in all the places
D A
Your hands have been
[Refrão]
G
Would you meet me in the middle?
D/F#
Could we both stop keeping score?
A
There’s a battle I must fight alone
Bm
But it’s you I’m fighting for
G
If I call off the battalion
D/F#
Break my walls down stone by stone
A
Tear down my defenses
Bm
I could build your heart a home
G A
And if I did
Bm
Would you come home?

[Final]
Bm D G
Wish I’d found the words when we were 17
Bm D
You were the best of me
G
You are the best of me
