 Am               G
Shot through the heart
          F           G           Am
It's all part of the game we call love

 Am                              G
Would you be content to see me crying?
      Am                                   G
After all those little games you put me through?
Am                                   G
After all I've done for you, you're lying
Am                                G
Wouldn't it be nice to tell the truth?

 F               G                    Am
Didn't somebody somewhere say you're gonna take a fall?
F                           G
I gave you everything, now here's the curtain call

Chorus:
         Am               G          F          G           Am
And I'm shot through the heart as I lay there alone in the dark
             G               F           G                 Am
Through the heart, it's all part of the game that we call love

Now you've come back here to say you're sorry
I just don't know who you're talking to
It could be the man I used to be, girl
I've grown up and now I'm over you

Standing there just a livewire with nowhere left to turn
You were gonna set the world on fire, but you'll never learn

Chorus:
That I'm shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of this game that we call love

  F                    G             Am
Standing there just a livewire with nowhere left to turn
F                                   G
You were gonna set the world on fire, but you'll never learn
C G         Am
Now you're shot

Am             G/A
Baby does what baby please
    F/A            G/A
And baby must have what she sees
    Am                G/A
But not this time the tables turned
    F/A                G/A
and baby, you just got burned

Chorus:
Shot through the heart as I lay there alone in the dark
Through the heart, it's all part of the game that we call love
