Em7 Cadd9 G D/F#
[Verse 1]
Em7 Cadd9
The first shots fired, everybody's gathered around
G
You're looking at me like I tried to take you down
D/F#
No, no, that's not what happened at all
Em7 Cadd9
There's no sound, I'm waiting on your next move
G
A showdown and I know where to hit you
D/F#
But no, no, that's not how I wanted this to go down
[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9 Em7
Now we're standing in the ring
D/F#
And you made your first swing
Em7
And now we're fighting dirty
Cadd9 D/F#
Won't somebody come say "break it up!"
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
And I used to be on your side
D/F# Em7
Now it's looking like we're going to battle
Cadd9 G
And why you're taking shots at me like
D/F# Em7
Somebody's gonna give you a medal?
Cadd9 G
And I never wanna hurt you
D/F# Em7
But I'm tired of taking all these blows
D Cadd9 G
And so I'd rather be on your side
D/F#
But if you wanna fight
Baby let's go
Cadd9 G D/F# Em7
Oh, oh let's go
Cadd9 G D
Oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Em7
So gloves off, if this is how you want it
Cadd9
We had it all, but you couldn't keep a promise
G D/F#
No, no, I'm not the one who tore us apart
Em7
Let me remind you for a minute why we're not fine
Cadd9
Is she here? Is she's standing on the sidelines?
G D/F#
Oh, oh, can't you tell this is breaking my heart?
[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9 Em7
Now we're standing in the ring
D/F#
And you made your first swing
Em7
And now I'm fighting dirty
Cadd9 D/F#
But I ain't going down till they break it up
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
And I used to be on your side
D/F# Em7
Now it's looking like we're going to battle
Cadd9 G
And why you're taking shots at me like
D/F# Em7
Somebody's gonna give you a medal?
Cadd9 G
And I never wanna hurt you
D/F# Em7
But I'm tired of taking all these blows
D Cadd9 G
And so I'd rather be on your side
D/F#
But if you wanna fight
Baby let's go
Cadd9 G D/F# Em7
Oh, oh let's go
Cadd9 G Dsus4/F# Em7
Oh, oh
[Bridge]
Cadd9 Em7
Now we're standing in the ring

Breaking everything that we've been building up so long
Cadd9 Em7 D
And I don't wanna do this break it up
Em7* D* Cadd9*
But you're not who I thought you were
Em7* D/F#* Cadd9
And this is looking more like a war

Like a war

Looks like we're going to war
[Chorus]
Cadd9* G*
And I used to be on your side

And I'm trying not to break down crying

No one's gonna give you a medal
Cadd9 G
And I never wanna hurt you
D/F# Em7 D
But I'm tired of taking all these blows and so
Cadd9 G D Em7 D
I'd rather be on your side
Cadd9 G
I'd rather be on your side
