[verse]
E                                 E4 E
Driving for days through north Ontario,

E                            E4 E
can't find a station on the radio.

E                           E4    E
I'm cold and lonely in the afterglow,

E                      E4    E
an empty bar, an uninspired show.
[verse]
E                        E4   E
I hate myself for being mis'rable,

E                           E4       E
a six-day binge is bound to do it, though.

E                         E4  E
I wish that I could be invisible,

E                                E4  E
we're three weeks in and out of control.
[chorus]
E   E4  E    E4     E         E4     E
One by one, every heart is a loaded gun.

E   E4  E    E4     E         E4     E
One by one, every heart is a loaded gun.
[verse]
E                               E4    E
I been shot down and I've been torn apart,

E                          E4     E
living out songs about a broken heart.

E                           E4      E
Blinding ambition, stabbing in the dark,

E                     E4       E
waiting for a better life to start.
[chorus]
E   E4  E    E4     E         E4     E
One by one, every heart is a loaded gun.
[bridge]
C#m         B      A
If I fall apart, stumbling in the dark,

              E              C#m
going way to far. If I fall apart,

                  B                F#m
will it leave a scar on my loaded heart?

            A     E
If I fall apaaaaart.

can't find a station on the radio.

E                           E4    E
I'm cold and lonely in the afterglow,

E                      E4     E
an empty bar, an uninspired show.
[verse]
E                            E4       E
With every turn we learn to take it slow,

E                           E4       E
redemption waiting for the down and low.

E                            E4   E
The change in everything is temporal,

E                               E4    E
and time will tell us where we gotta go.

E   E4  E    E  E4  E
One by one, one by one,

E   E4  E    E4    E          E4     E
one by one, every heart is a loaded gun.

E   E4  E    E4    E          E4     E
one by one, every heart is a loaded gun.

E   E4  E    E4    E          E4     E
one by one, every heart is a loaded gun.

E   E4  E      E4     E         E4      E
one by one, a heavy heart is a setting sun.
