Verse 1
These battle
Fm Fm 
 
Db Db 
 
Never let a wound ruin me
Ab Ab 
 
But I feel like ruin's wooing me
Arrow holes that never close
Eb Eb 
 
from Cupid on a shooting spree
Feeling stupid cause I know
Fm Fm 
 
it ain't no you and me
But when you're trying to beat the odds up
Db Db 
 
Been trying to keep your nods up
and you know that you should know
Ab Ab 
 
And let it go but the fear of the unknown
Eb Eb 
 
Holding another lover's phone
sends you back into the zone
Fm Fm 
 
With no Tom Hanks to bring you home
Db Db 
 
A lover not a fighter
on the front line with a poem
Ab Ab 
 
Trying to write yourself a rifle
Eb Eb 
 
Maybe sharpen up a song
To fight the tanks and drones
of you being...

Pre-chorus 1
Fm Fm 
 
I wish I never looked, I wish I never touched
Db Db 
 
I wish that I could stop loving you so much
Ab Ab 
 
Cause I'm the only one
that's trying to keep us together
Eb Eb 
 
When all of the signs say
that I should forget her
Fm Fm 
 
I wish you weren't the best,
the best I ever had
Db Db 
 
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Ab Ab 
 
Cause it'll never be over,
Eb Eb 
 
until you tell me it's over

Chorus 2

Fm Fm 
 
These battle scars,
Db Db 
 
don't look like they're fading
Ab Ab 
 
Don't look like they're ever going away

They ain't never gonna change

Verse 2
These battle
Fm Fm 
 
You shouldn't have but you said it
Db Db 
 
(And I hope you never come back)
It shouldn't have happened but you let it
Ab Ab 
 
Now you're down on the ground
screaming medic
Eb Eb 
 
The only thing that comes
is the post-traumatic stresses
Fm Fm 
 
Shields, body armours and vests
Db Db 
 
Don't properly work,
that's why you're in a locker full of hurt
Ab Ab 
 
The enemy within
and all the fires from your friends
Eb Eb 
 
The best medicine is to probably just let...

Pre-chorus 2
Fm Fm 
 
I wish I couldn't feel, I wish I couldn't love
Db Db 
 
I wish that I could stop
'cause it hurts so much
Ab Ab 
 
And I'm the only one
that's trying to keep us together
Eb Eb 
 
When all of the signs say
that I should forget her
Fm Fm 
 
I wish you weren't the best,
the best I ever had
Db Db 
 
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Ab Ab 
 
Cause it'll never be over,
Eb Eb 
 
until you tell me it's over

'Cause you've set me on fire
Ab Ab 
 
I've never felt so alive, yeah
Now hoping wounds heal, but it never does
Eb Eb 
 
Bbm Bbm 
 
That's because you're at war with love
Fm Fm 
 
And I'm at the point of breaking
Eb Eb 
 
Eb Eb 
 
And it's impossible to shake it
Bbm Bbm 
 
See,  you hope the wound heals,
