[Intro]
C
[Verse]
G     Am               F 
Combat, I'm ready for combat 
              G        Am               F 
I say I don't want that, but what if I do? 
       G      Am            F 
'Cause cruelty wins in the movies 
          G                   Am                 F 
I've got a hundred thrown-out speeches I almost said to you
[Pre-Chorus]
 C 
Easy they come, easy they go 
   G 
I jump from the train, I ride off alone 
   Am 
I never grew up, it's getting so old 
 F 
Help me hold on to you
[Chorus]
              C            G         F 
I've been the archer, I've been the prey 
               Am 
Who could ever leave me, darling 
    G          F 
But who could stay?
[Verse]
G        Am                   F 
Dark side, I search for your dark side 
                G         Am            F 
But what if I'm alright, right, right, right here? 
      G      Am                F 
And I cut off my nose just to spite my face 
                  G      Am              F 
Then I hate my reflection for years and years
[Pre-Chorus]
   C 
I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost 
     G 
The room is on fire, invisible smoke 
     Am 
And all of my heroes die all alone 
 F 
Help me hold on to you
[Chorus]
              C            G         F 
I've been the archer, I've been the prey 
                          Am 
Screaming, who could ever leave me, darling 
    G          F 
But who could stay? 
  
(I see right through me, I see right through me)
[Bridge]
        C 
'Cause they see right through me 
 C 
They see right through me 
 G 
They see right through 
     G 
Can you see right through me? 
 Am 
They see right through 
 Am 
They see right through me 
F 
I see right through me 
F 
I see right through me
[Pre-Chorus]
 C 
All the king's horses, all the king's men 
 G 
Couldn't put me together again 
        Am 
'Cause all of my enemies started out friends 
 F 
Help me hold on to you
[Chorus]
              C            G         F 
I've been the archer, I've been the prey 
               Am 
Who could ever leave me, darling 
    G          F 
But who could stay? 
  
(I see right through me, I see right through me) 
        C 
Who could stay? 
G          F 
Who could stay? 
           Am 
Who could stay? 
G          F 
You could stay 
           C         G   F 
You could stay...
[Outro]
Am          G          F      (C/G) 
Combat, I'm ready for combat
