[Intro] D#m B F# A# [Verse]
D#m                                    B
There's been a lot of miscommunication lately

F#                                 C#
A lot of wait and see and too many maybes

      D#m                                       B                                        F#         C#
And I wanna believe that your faith in me is as strong as it was when we thought we'd be unbreakable

D#m                         B
All the words we say end up distorted

     F#                             C#
From skinbreak to heartache without warning

    D#m                                      B                                 F#
And you don't mean it and I don't either, we get so close to being defeated by circumstance

      C#                G#m           B
Do we stand a chance to rise above it all

    G#m       B
But I feel so small
[Chorus]
                 D#m
Lay your weapons down

                       B
And I'll take my armor off

                    F#
Say what we need to say

                     A#
And love before it's lost

                       D#m
'Cause what we have is real

                      B
And real can hurt sometimes

                    F#                                 A#
But just because it hurts doesn't mean that we say goodbye

                    D#m
So lay your weapons down

   B
Ooh

                 F#
Lay your weapons down

   A#
Ooh
[Verse]
D#m                           B
Feel so uncomfortable in this silence

             F#                         C#
Behind these invisible walls we build inside us

   D#m                                         B                                             F#
So what's gonna give and what will it take for us to admit that we're both gonna break if we stay right here

            C#
Don't wanna stay right here
[Chorus]
                 D#m
Lay your weapons down

                       B
And I'll take my armor off

                    F#
Say what we need to say

                     A#
And love before it's lost

                       D#m
'Cause what we have is real

                      B
And real can hurt sometimes

                    F#                             A#
But just because it hurts doesn't mean that we say goodbye

                    D#m
So lay your weapons down

   B
Ooh

                 F#
Lay your weapons down

   A#
Ooh
D#m B F# A# [Bridge]
        G#m*          B*
I wanna rise above it all

         D#m*          C#*
Will you hold me, just hold me
[Chorus]
                     D#m
And lay your weapons down

                       B
And I'll take my armor off

                    F#
Say what we need to say

                     A#
And love before it's lost

                       D#m
'Cause what we have is real

                      B
And real can hurt sometimes

                    F#                                 A#
But just because it hurts doesn't mean that we say goodbye

                    D#m
So lay your weapons down

   B
Ooh

                 C#m
Lay your weapons down

   A#
Ooh

                 D#m
Lay your weapons down

   B
Ooh

                 F#
Lay your weapons down

   A#
Ooh
