The Archer
By Taylor Swift
Track 5

[Verse 1]
G      Am             F
Combat, I'm ready for combat
               G         Am              F
I say I don't want that, but what if I do?
        G      Am           F
'Cause cruelty wins in the movies
            G                  Am                F
I've got a hundred thrown-out speeches I almost said to you

[Pre-Chorus]
C
Easy they come, easy they go
   G
I jump from the train, I ride off alone
   Am
I never grew up, it's getting so old
F
Help me hold on to you

[Chorus]
               C                     F
I've been the archer, I've been the prey
                Am
Who could ever leave me, darling
                F
But who could stay?

[Verse 2]
G         Am                 F
Dark side, I search for your dark side
                 G        Am              F
But what if I'm alright, right, right, right here?
       G      Am               F
And I cut off my nose just to spite my face
                  G       Am   F
Then I hate my reflection for years and years

[Pre-Chorus]
   C
I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost
     G
The room is on fire, invisible smoke
     Am
And all of my heroes die all alone
F
Help me hold on to you

[Chorus]
               C                     F
I've been the archer, I've been the prey
                           Am
Screaming, who could ever leave me, darling
               F
But who could stay? (I see right through me, I see right through me)

[Bridge]
        C
'Cause they see right through me, they see right through me
G
They see right through, can you see right through me?
Am
They see right through, they see right through me
F
I see right through, I see right through me

[Pre-Chorus]
C
All the king's horses, all the king's men
G
Couldn't put me together again
        Am
'Cause all of my enemies started out friends
F
Help me hold on to you

[Chorus]
               C                     F
I've been the archer, I've been the prey
                Am
Who could ever leave me, darling
                F
But who could stay? (I see right through me, I see right through me)

[Outro]
          C
Who could stay?
           F
Who could stay?
          Am
Who could stay?
           F
You could stay
           C        G   F
You could stay...
G      Am             F
Combat, I'm ready for combat
