[Intro]

Gm F Gm F

[Verse 1]

Take an army of men ten thousand fleet strong

And if I inject a big old wrecking ball

Some barbed wire wrapped around an old baseball bat

Oh, to make my storm heart fall

Take a nuclear bomb or a great tidal wave

A full suit of armor getting dragged through the cave

Of a grizzly bear, some kind of jungle warfare

Honey, that'd be the only way

[Pre-Chorus]

That's before you just walked in

With your sad eyes, pulled me right in

I have no chance to survive this

When I felt the direct hit of your lips

[Chorus]

And baby, I'm ruined

F C

At the hands of a woman

You must know what you're doing

How to ruin a man like me

[Verse 2]

It was blind devastation as the empire fell

It was the kind of invasion history books gonna tell

How a curtain call beauty crusaded right through me

I had no way to rebel

[Pre-Chorus]

That's before you just walked in

And I felt the direct hit of your lips

[Chorus]

And baby, I'm ruined

F C

At the hands of a woman

You must know what you're doing

Yeah, to ruin a man like me, like me

[Interlude]

Gm F Gm F

[Bridge]

I could pretend it's not hard to stand

But oh how my knees wanna bend

And baby, the truth is

[Chorus]

Oh, was I foolish?

I'm only human

Bet you know what you're doing

Loving with a man like me, oh baby

Who was I fooling?

Yeah, you ruined a man like me
