And no matter the [F]cost, I’ll be standing next to [E]you, [E7]oh

[Closing]
My [F]back’s [Dm]against the [Am]wall [E]tonight
So go [Dm]ahead pull the trigger, shoot the lights out
So go [E]ahead pull the trigger, shoot the [E7]lights out
I [F]see the [Dm]fear that’s [Am]in your [E]eyes
So go [Dm]ahead pull the trigger, shoot the lights out
So go [E]ahead pull the trigger, [E7]shoot

[chorus]
I got my hands up [Am]screaming, got my hands up [G]screaming
