 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
I've got a hundred thrown-out speeches
          F
I almost said to you

 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                       F
I've been the archer, I've been the prey
                Am
Who could ever leave me, darling
                F
But who could stay?

Dark side, I search for your dark side
But what if I'm alright, right, right, right here?
And I cut off my nose just to spite my face
Then I hate my reflection for years and years

I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost
The room is on fire, invisible smoke
And all of my heroes die all alone
Help me hold on to you

Chorus:
I've been the archer, I've been the prey
Screaming, who could ever leave me, darling
But who could stay?
(I see right through me, I see right through me)

         C
'Cause they see right through me,
they see right through me
  G
They see right through,
can you see right through me?
 Am
They see right through,
they see right through me
F
I see right through, I see right through me

All the king's horses, all the king's men
Couldn't put me together again
'Cause all of my enemies started out friends
Help me hold on to you

Chorus:
I've been the archer, I've been the prey
Who could ever leave me, darling
But who could stay?
(I see right through me, I see right through me)
Who could stay?
Who could stay?
Who could stay?
You could stay
You could stay

Combat, I'm ready for combat
