[Verse 1]
D# Dm
We've been here before
D# Dm
Veterans of our fathers' wars
D# Dm
All have felt like this
D# Dm
Broken pieces hard to fix
[Pre-chorus 1]
D#
But my heart keeps beating
Dm
To this rhythm I'm hearing
F
Like a drum, pounds in my chest like
D#/G
Pum-padum-padum
D#
Now I know the meaning
Dm
Of this hurt not healing
F
Now I know
D#/G
Now I know
[Chorus 1]
D# Dm
Easy come, easy go,
D#
Some things fix fast,
Dm
Some painfully slow
D#
Does it really matter when
Dm
There has got to be a plan
D# Dm
Never has to be the end
D# Dm
So broken pieces remind me
D# Dm
That what tries to hurt me simply defines me oh
D# Dm
Understand, things get better they can,
D# Dm
Battle scars only make me who I am
[Verse 2]
D# Dm
We've been here before
D# Dm
Wins and losses, keeping score
D#
Scared of opening upon fear of what comes in
Dm
Not sure what really matters
D#
What's to be what's been
Dm
Broken pieces hard to fix
[Pre-chorus 2]
D#
But I have my battle scars
Dm
My feet have taken me this far
F
And that drum pounds in my chest like,
D#/G
Pum-padum-padum
D# Dm
This familiar feeling is what keeps me going
D#
Now I know
F
Now I know
[Chorus]
D# Dm
Easy come, easy go
D#
Some things fix fast,
Dm
Some painfully slow
D#
Does it really matter when
Dm
There has got to be a plan
D# Dm
Never has to be the end
D# Dm
There will be thins that harm me
D# Dm
They will leave scars that forever mark me
D#
I will run and keep faith
Dm
Won't be blinded by hate
D#
Eyes on tomorrow
Dm
Not the sorrow of yesterday
[Outro]
D# Dm
Oh we have battle scars,
D# Dm F
Reminds us of our broken parts
D# Dm
Oh we have war wounds,
D# Dm
Reminds us what we've lost so soon
D# Dm
Oh we have battle scars,
D# Dm F
Reminds us of our broken hearts
D# Dm
Oh we have war wounds,
D# Dm
Reminds us what we've lost so soon
D# Dm
Oh we have battle scars,
D# Dm F
Reminds us of our broken parts
D# F
Oh we have war wounds,
D#
Reminds us what we've lost so soon...
