[Intro]
Gm Eb Bb F
Gm     Eb                Bb       F
Do you know what's worth fighting for
Gm        Eb         Bb       F
When it's not worth dying for?
Gm      Eb         Bb       F
Does it take your breath away
       Eb                  F
And you feel yourself suffocating
Gm       Eb           Bb       F
Does the pain weigh out the pride?
Gm      Eb           Bb       F
And you look for a place to hide
Gm        Eb           Bb       F
Did someone break your heart inside
          Eb      F5
You're in ruins
Bb5  F5 G5
One, 21 Guns
F5            Eb5
Lay down your arms
Bb5         F5
Give up the fight
Bb5  F5 G5
One, 21 Guns
F5            Eb5  Bb5         F5
Throw up your arms into the sky
        Eb5      F C F C F C F C
You and I...
Dm          Bb     F          C
When you're at the end of the road
Dm      Bb       F        C
And you lost all sense of control
Dm       Bb            F           C
And your thoughts have taken their toll
Bb                                       C
When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul
Dm    Bb            F        C
Your faith walks on broken glass
Dm       Bb       F          C
And the hangover doesn't pass
Dm         Bb     F          C
Nothing's ever built to last
Bb                      C
You're in ruins
F5   C5 D5
One, 21 Guns
C5            Bb5
Lay down your arms
F5          C5
Give up the fight
F5   C5 D5
One, 21 Guns
C5            Bb5  F5       C5
Throw up your arms into the sky
Bb5    F5   C5
You and I...
Gm      Eb     Bb           F
Did you try to live on your own
Gm       Eb              Bb        D
When you burned down the house and home
Gm      Eb        Bb           D
Did you stand too close to the fire?
       Eb                      F
Like a liar looking for forgiveness... from a stone
Gm        Eb       Bb             F
When it's time to live and let die
Gm      Eb          Bb        F
And you can't get another try
Gm         Eb          Bb          F
Something inside this heart has died
              Eb         F
You're in ruins
C5   G5 A5
One, 21 Guns
G5            F5
Lay down your arms
C5          G5
Give up the fight
C5   G5 A5
One, 21 Guns
G5            F5   C5          G5
Throw up your arms into the sky
        F5  C5  G5
You and I
