Love Is A Battleground

[INTRO]
E  A  E 

[VERSE 1]
   E
If anybody had a reason 
                             C#m    B
To turn around and walk away it was you
B7
Nobody would have ever blamed you
                                          E
If you dusted off your hands and said I'm through
     E7
When everybody else was leaving
               E7/G#                              A    E/G#  F#m
You could have packed your bags and headed out of town
        B7
But you kept on coming for me, cause you knew
                E        E7
Love is a battleground

[CHORUS 1]
     A                          F#m
It’s always a fight, don’t feel fair sometimes 
E            B/D#             C#m    B
  Sure ain’t for the faint of heart,   
         A                    F#m
Cuts you like a knife, it can bleed you dry 
E                B/D#        C#m    B
  And leave you feeling torn apart
      A                                    B
These wounds and scars you wear ‘em like a crown
                        E
Love is a battleground

[VERSE 2]
     E
When everybody said you’re crazy
                        C#m      B
It’s a hopeless case, a waste of time
B7
Ain't nothin’ ever gonna change it
                                               E
Even all those prayers and all those tears you cried
        E7
But you walked right through the fire
E7/G#                         A    E/G#  F#m
     Never thought of backing down
          B                    B7
Yeah you kept on coming for me,    cause you knew
                E
Love is a battleground

[CHORUS 2]
A                     F#m
  It’s always a fight,    don’t feel fair sometimes 
E            B/D#             C#m    B
  Sure ain’t for the faint of heart,   
         A                    F#m
Cuts you like a knife, it can bleed you dry 
E                B/D#        C#m    B
  And leave you feeling torn apart
      A                                    B
These wounds and scars you wear ‘em like a crown
       A                                       B
It’s a give, it’s a take, a life that you laid down
