Bm
You are my hurt locker lover
Keep me walking on a wire
G     D         Em     C
Don't know when you'll blow
     Bm
So I tiptoe through your triggered mind
You fight me but I'm on your side
  G  D        Em    C
Defeated, now retreating
Em                                Bm
  Why you tryna make me your enemy
                                C
All you really need is a little peace
                     Bm D Em
I just wanna be your lo---ver
                             Bm
Oh, this is not a competition
                          C
So baby why the ammunition
                              Bm D C
I don't wanna be the last one standing
G                    D
Choose your battles, babe
Bm                  C
Then you'll win the war
     G                D
Stop digging your own grave
                Bm           C
When there's so much to live for
G                    D
Choose your battles, babe

'Cause I'm not fighting anymore

Bm
I've tried to pick off your red flags
While dancing on broken glass
     G    D              Em   C
Your mind games hit like grenades
     Bm
Feel cursed just like the Kennedy's
But you somehow get me on my knees, 
  G  D        Em    C
Defeated, now retreated
Em                                    Bm
  Why you trying to make me your enemy
                                C
