Elle King - Playing For Keeps: chords

     Am                  C    Dm
You prayed to have your name scattered on
     F            Am
the lips of the young
          C             Dm          F
Now you claim that it's you on the tips
           Am
of their tongue
                C                Dm
And if you're proud of what you had to
         F
kill to get your thrill
Am               C
Well, I bet it stings to give up
Dm              F             E7
everything and realize that they don't want you

Chorus:
        Am                  C
It's a lonely road where the forgotten go
          Dm                     Am
Where your misery finds its company
        Am                 C
It's a long way down to the sacred ground
         Dm                     E7 Am
Where the reaper's playing for keeps

     C        Dm       F        Am
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
     C        Dm       F        Am
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

The hollow sound is ringing where
your heart used to be
Have you found that your
admiration will never set you free?
Get your lies prepared,
you're next in line for judgement day,
now Aren't you praying,
aren't you begging that you're anyone else?

Chorus

Whoa, whoa, whoa-oh-oh-ow - x4

       Am               C
Well I bet you're sorry now
         Dm              F
Well you did this to yourself
       Am               C
Well I bet you're sorry now
     Dm               E7
Well aren't you sorry now
