Verse 1:
Eb I knew Bb When you told me you don't wanna go home tonight Ab And you tried to just shrug it off when I asked you why Somebody hurt you, somebody hurt you Bb Eb But you're here by my side and I knew Bb 'Cause I can recall when I was the one in your seat Ab I still got the scars and they occasionally bleed Cause somebody hurt me, somebody hurt me Eb But I'm staying alive Ab And I can tell, when you get nervous Bb You think being yourself, means being unworthy Ab And it's hard to love, with a heart that's hurting Bb But if you want to go out dancingEb Bb I know a place, I know a place we can go Cm Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon Fm Lay down their weapon Bb Just give me trust and watch what'll happen Eb Bb 'Cause I know, I know a place we can run Cm Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon Fm Lay down their weapon Bb Don’t you be afraid of love and affection Eb Just lay down your weaponVerse 2:
Eb Bb Right no it's like you're carrying all the weight of your past Ab I see all your bruises, yellow, dark blue, and black But baby a bruise is only your body Bb Tryna keep you intact Eb Bb So right now I think we should go get drunk on cheap wine Bb Ab I think we should hop on the purple line 'Cause maybe our purpose Bb Is to never give up when we're on the right track Ab And I can tell, when you get nervous Bb You think being yourself, means being unworthy Ab Ab And it's hard to love with a heart that's hurting Bb But if you want to go out dancingEb Bb I know a place, I know a place we can go Cm Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon Cm Fm Lay down their weapon Bb Just give me trust and watch what'll happen Eb Bb 'Cause I know, I know a place we can run Cm Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon Fm Lay down their weapon Bb Don’t you be afraid of love and affection Eb Just lay down your weaponBridge:
Eb They will try to make you unhappy, don't let them Cm They will try to tell you you're not free, don't listen Ab I, I know a place where you don't need protection Bb Even if it's only in my imagination Eb Even if our skin or our gods looks different Cm I believe all human life is significant Ab I throw my arms open wide in resistance Bb he’s not my leader even if he’s my presidentEb Bb I know a place, I know a place we can go Cm Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon Cm Fm Lay down their weapon Bb Just give me trust and watch what'll happen Chorus Eb Bb I know a place, I know a place we can go Cm Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon Fm Lay down their weapon Bb Don’t you be afraid of love and affection Eb Just lay down your weapon
