Original Key: Fm
Capo: 1st fret
[Intro]
Em C
Hope the wound heals but it never does
G
That's cause you're at war with love
D
You're at war with love, yeah
[Hook]
Em C
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
G
Don't look like they're ever going away
D
They ain't never gonna change
These battle...
[Verse]
Em C
Never let a wound ruin me
G
But I feel like ruin's wooing me
D
Arrow holes, they never close from Cupid on a shooting spree
Em
Feeling stupid cause I know it ain't no you and me
But when you're trying to beat the odds up
C
Been trying to keep your nods up
G
And you know that you should know
And let her go
But the fear of the unknown
D
Hold another lover strong
Em
Sends you back into the zone
With no Tom Hanks to bring you home,
C
A lover not a fighter
G
On the front line with a poem,
Trying to write yourself a rifle
D
Maybe sharpen up a stone
To fight the tanks and drones of you being alone
[Pre-Hook]
Em
I wish I never looked, I wish I never touched
C
I wish that I could stop loving you so much
G
Cause I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
D
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
Em
I wish you weren't the best, the best I ever had
C
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
G D
Cause it'll never be over, until you tell me it's over
[Hook]
Em C
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
G
Don't look like they're ever going away
D
They ain't never gonna change
Em C
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
G
Don't look like they're ever going away
D
They ain't never gonna change
These battle...
[Verse]
Em C
You shouldn't have but you said it
G
It shouldn't have happened but you let it
Now you're down on the ground screaming medic
D
The only thing that comes is the post-traumatic stresses
Em C
Shields, body armors and vests don't properly work
That's why you're in a locker full of hurt
G
The enemy within and all the fires from your friends
D
The best medicine's to probably just let it win
[Pre-Hook]
Em
I wish I couldn't feel, I wish I couldn't love
C
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
G
And I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
D
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
Em
I wish you weren't the best, the best I ever had
C
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
G D
Cause it'll never be over, until you tell me it's over
[Hook]
Em C
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
G
Don't look like they're ever going away
D
They ain't never gonna change
Em C
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
G
Don't look like they're ever going away
D
They ain't never gonna change
These battle...
[Bridge]
Am Em
Cause you set me on fire
G
I've never felt so alive, yeah
No, hoping wounds heal, but it never does
D Am
That's because you're at war with love
Em
And I'm at the point of breaking
D
And it's impossible to shake it (yeah)
Am
See, you hoped the wound heals, but it never does
Em G
That's cause you're at war with love
D
Hope it heals, but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love!
[Hook]
Em C
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
G
Don't look like they're ever going away
D
I ain't ever gonna change
Em C
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
G
Don't look like they're ever going away
D
They ain't never gonna change
Em C
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
G
Don't look like they're ever going away
D
I ain't ever gonna change
Em
These battle...
