Verse
B C#
Have you ever loved someone so much, you'd give an arm for?
D#m
Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
B C#
When they know they're your heart And you know you were their armour
D#m
And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm 'her
B C#
But what happens when karma, turns right around and bites you
D#m
And everything you stand for, turns on you, to spite you?
B
What happens when you become the main source of a pain?

B C#
Daddy's writing this song, this song ain't gon' write itself
D#m
I'll give you one underdog, and you gotta swing by yourself

Then turn right around in that song and tell her you love her
