War Paint

Kelly Clarkson


Tom: Em

Em           C
 Face to face but miles away
G                   D            Em
 Building trenches out of empty spaces
      C               G
 Lay here, next to me
                D              Em
 And close the distance in between

 
 Pre-Chorus:
                 C                    G
 I'll take off yours if you take off mine
               D                        Em
 Reveal the things that we're trying to hide
                 C                    G
 I'll take off yours if you take off mine
           D
 Take off mine


 Chorus:
Em                 C                    G
 Cause we can be beautiful without our war paint
      D
 Our war paint
Em                  C                    G
 And we can have it all once we let our walls break
      D
 Our walls break
Em                      C
 Why in the hell do we fight on the front line?
G                              D                Em
 When we both know that we're here on the same side
             C                    G
 We can be beautiful without the mistake
         D

 Verse:
Em            C
 Scar to scar, I wanna know
G          D                    Em
 Every story that you've never told
                  C                      G
 Don't shut me out, don't think too much
                D             Em
 Don't keep that barricade up


 Pre-Chorus:
                 C                    G
 I'll take off yours if you take off mine
               D                        Em
 Reveal the things that we're trying to hide
                 C                    G
 I'll take off yours if you take off mine
           D
 Take off mine


 Chorus:
Em                 C                    G

 Bridge:
              C                Em
 So hold me close and kiss my skin
             Am          Em
 Don't be afraid, let me in
                 C                  Em
 I'll hold you close and take your hand
         D
 To my heart, here I am
