CAPO: 3

Intro: D  Em    D  Em 


Verse: 
      D 
Oh I know, I know, I know 
                              Em 
All the songs you write are about me 
          D 
But you changed the names  

So I can’t stake my claim 
            Em 
You’re so greedy 
       D 
And I know, I know, I know 
                                     Em 
That you think you’re a much better writer 
           D 
And that might be true 

But what I’ve got on you 
          Em 
Is I’m a fighter 



[Refrão]

         D 
This is war 
                Em 
My fingers are sore 
                 D 
So far from the top 
                 G 
But I refuse to stop 
                   D 
Got shakers in my eardrums 
               Em 
Bossing like a new gun 
                 D 
Baby, when it’s all done 
                         G 
You won’t mind that I’ve won 
           D 
This is a battle 
             Em 
You are the prize 
               D 
Put down that piano 
                 G 
Let’s start our lives 
                 D 
You’ve got more soldiers 
                   Em 
But I’ve got more passion 
                 D 
And I’m right behind you  
               G 
Just gaining traction 
                D 
POW! POW! POW! POW! 
                 Em 
BANG! BANG! BANG!  BANG! 
                D 
POW! POW! POW! POW! 
                 Em 
BANG! BANG! BANG!  BANG! 


Verse: 
       D 
And I know, I know, I know 
                                      Em 
About the lovers in your bulletproof lining 
              D 
They don’t intimidate 
                                      Em 
They’re just too bit-ah late and bad timing 
        D 
And I know, I know, I know 
                                          Em 
You’ve got your battle plan mapped out in inches 
              D 
But I’m not scared of you 
                                       Em 
I’m jumping right into these Brooklyn trenches 



[Refrão]

         D 
This is war 
                Em 
My fingers are sore 
              D 
I might be a masochist  
                 G 
Just asking for more 
                             D 
Cause this stage is like a standoff 
                   Em 
And you’re pretty tough 
                  D 
I’m bruised and bloody 
                    G 
BUT I’LL NEVER GIVE UP! 
           D 
This is a battle 
             Em 
You are the prize 
               D 
Put down that piano 
                G 
And come to my side 
                    D 
We’ll sing songs together 
                Em 
I’ll hold your hand 
                      D 
Make perfect-pitched babies 
            G     D  G     D  G 
And form a band 


Verse: 

D 
I don’t really want,  
                               Em 
I don’t really wanna fight no more 
      D 
I’m sweating in the sun 
                              Em 
Camped out with ammo at your door 

Uh-oor, uh-oor, uh-oor, oh 
D 
I don’t really want,  
                               Em 
I don’t really wanna fight no more 
        D 
I just can’t be beat 

So I will stand the heat 
                               Em 
Until your love, your love is sure 

Baby, this is war
