Arlissa - Sticks and stones

^CShot down, by your bullets ^G They shatte^Cr, my faith and my bones ^G

If you would listen, your ^Fwords they hurt They creep right under my ^Cskin

They cut so deep, oh ^{G Dm}Can't you unders^Ftand, I don't want ba^Amttles, battles, battles

And if you l^Dmay them in my han^Fd ^AmI won't fight battles, battles, battles

Oh tell me w^Fhy ^C We work so hard to ^Gbreak these bones ^F

Can w^Fe try,^C to lay down ^G These sticks and stones, ^Am

Sticks and stone^Fs, ^CWe crash and fall, togethe^Gr

So sad^C, we don't remember ^G Why we're tearin^Fg us apart

When I can feel the cri^Ces, the cries in my ^Gheart,

^DmCan't you unders^Ftand, I don't want ba^Amttles, battles, battles And if you lay t^Dmhem in my hand ^F

I won't fight battl^Ames, battles, battles Oh tell me why ^{F C}

We work so hard to^G break these bones ^F Can w^Fe try,^C to lay down ^G

^AmThese sticks and stones, Sticks and stone^Fs,

^GWhy does it have to be so hard just surrender When we got nothing left, nothing left t^Fo loose

^DmCan't you unders^Ftand, I don't want battles, battl^Ames, battles And if you lay th^Dmem in my hand ^F

I won't fight battl^Ames, battles, battles Oh tell me why ^{F C}

We work so hard to^G break these bones ^{F C}Can we try, to lay down ^G

^AmThese sticks and stones, Sticks and stone^Fs.
