New versions

1 years ago
Tone: [Bbm]
Intro:
[Bbm] [Gb] [Db] [F] [F7]
Verse 1:
[Bbm]I swear on my life and the River Styx
I never [Gb]thought it'd be you I'd miss
Now I'm [Db]dangling by the ankle somewhere [F]cold
 
 
Like [Bbm]Sisyphus pushing that rock uphill
Or [Gb]Echo falling for a daffodil
You [Db]lured me like a siren to the sho[F]shore
 
Pre-Chorus 1:
Now I [Bbm]can't keep this l[F]love
'Cause it a[Bbm]always hurts [Ab]too [Gb]much
I keep [Db]crumbling, I keep s[Eb]stumbling
'Cause [Ab]you've become my [F]crutch
 
Chorus:
Loving you's my Achilles' [Ab]heel
[Bbm]Drop my guard w[Abm]when y[Ab]you're with [Gb]me, I can't [F]deal
I [Bbm]just h[Ab]ate when I wa[Gb]lk on these pins and n[Ab]eedles [Bbm]
I [Ab]want to k[Gb]kill this Achilles' [Bbm]heel
 
Verse 2:
 
You said you wanted me, no strings attached
I gu[Gb]guess I have the Fates to thank for that
Call me [Db]Icarus
'cause baby, you're [F]my sun
 
 
But now I'm t[Bbm]turning to stone looking in your eyes
'Cause you l[Gb]love hard, Kore only half the time [Db]
Athena'd be jealous of the [F]web you spun
 
Pre-Chorus 2:
[Bbm]Like Atlas held too [Cm]much
I feel c[Bbm]rushed und[Ab]er this l[Gb]ove
'Cause with those [Db]nectar lips
And amb[Eb]ambrosia hips
Boy, [Ab]you've become my [F]drug
 
Chorus:
L[Bbm]oving you[Abm]'s my A[Ab]chil[Gb]les' h[Ab]eel
[Bbm]Drop my gu[Abm]guard when you'r[Ab]you're with [Gb]me, I can't deal
I [Bbm]just hate wh[Ab]when I wal[Gb]walk on these [Ab]pins and ne[Bbm]edles
[Ab]I want to k[Gb]kill this Achilles' heel
 
Post-Chorus:
[Bbm]Mm, mm, k[Ab]ill[Gb] this Achilles' h[Ab]eel [Bbm]-mm, [Ab]mm-
[Gb]Don't wanna have to heal [Bbm]
[Ab]-Mm- Achi[Gb]Achilles, Achilles' [Ab]Heel
[Bbm]I don't wan[Ab]want to hav[Gb]have to heal
 
Bridge:
[Bbm]Now it's time to bring the choir
 
Play your game and string the lyre
[Gb]Boy, I'm like Prometheus
 
Finally taking back my fire
[Db]-Finally taking back my fire,
[Cm]Finally taking back my f[Fm]fire-
 
 
Your ho[Bbm]horse is in the gate again
 
But this time I won't let it in
I'm c[Gb]closing that Pandora's Box
 
Escaping from this labyrinth
-[Db]-Escaping from this labyrinth,
 
Escaping from this labyrinth,
[Cm]Escaping from this labyrinth,
 
labyrinth, labyrinth-
 
 
[Bbm]No more looking back like Orpheus
 
Labor like I'm Heracles
[Gb]You're losing your golden touch
 
I'll end this part like my name's Paris
-[Db]-I'll end this part like my name's Paris,
[F]my is Paris, my is Paris...-
 
Chorus:
[Bbm]Loving you[Ab]'s my Achill[Gb]es' h[Ab]eel
Dr[Bm]op my gu[Abm]ard when you're[Ab] with [Gb]me, I can't deal
[Bbm]I just [Ab]hate when I wa[Gb]lk on these pins and[Ab] nee[Bbm]dles
[Ab]I want to kil[Gb]kill this Achilles' heel
 
Post-Chorus:
[Bbm]Mm, [Ab]mm, k[Gb]kill this Achilles' [Bbm]Heel
-[Ab]-Mm- D[Gb]Don't wanna have to [F]he[Bbm]-e-a[Ab]-l
A[Gb]Achilles, Achill[Ab]Achilles' Heel
[Bbm]I don't [Ab]want to have to heal
