Bravado Chords

[Intro]
Bm G A Bm G A
 
[Verse 1]
        Bm
All my life,
          G          A
I've been fighting a war
        Bm      G            A
I can't talk to you or your friends
          Bm
It's not only you,
     G            A              Bm
My heart jumps around when I'm alluded to
              G     A
This will not do
             Bm          G      A
Cause I was raised up to be admired,
      Bm
to be noticed
      G               A
But when you're withdrawn,
          Bm
it's the closest thing
       G              A          Bm
to assault when all eyes are on you
              G    A
This will not do
 
[Interlude]
Bm – Bm - G - A
(Oh)      Oh, oh
Bm – Bm - G – A
(Oh)      Oh, oh
Bm – Bm - G – A
Oh,       oh
Bm – Bm - G – A
Oh,       oh
 
[Verse 2]
           Bm
I'm faking glory
         G             A
Lick my lips toss my hair
             Bm
And turn the smile on
         G             A
And the story's brand new
           Bm
But I can take it from here,
      G        A       Bm    G   A
I'll find my own bravado
 
[Chorus]
D
  It's a switch flipped
It's a pill tipped back
                 Em
It's a moon eclipsed, oh
Bm                                                                 A
   And I can tell you that when the lights come on I'll be ready for this
D
  It's in your bloodstream
                                   Em         Bm
A collision of atoms that happens before your eyes
                                                     A
It's a marathon run or a mountain you scaled without thinking of size
D
I was frightened of every little thing
                   Em     Bm
that I thought was out to get me down
                            A
To trip me up, and laugh at me,
    D
But I learned not to want the quiet of the room
               Em      Bm
with no one around to find me out
                                                   A
I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go
 
[Interlude]
Bm – Bm - G - A
(Oh)      Oh, oh
Bm – Bm - G – A
(Oh)      Oh, oh
Bm – Bm - G – A
Oh,       oh
Bm – Bm - G – A
Oh,       oh
 
[Chorus]
