Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
There's a [F]humming
in the restless [Dm]summer air
And we're [Am]slipping off the course
that [Gm]we prepared
But in all [F]chaos, there is calcu[Dm]lation
[Am]Dropping glasses just to hear them break
You've been [F]drinking like the world
was [Dm]gonna end (it didn't)
Took a [Am]shiner from the fist of [Gm]your best friend
(go figure)
[F]It's clear that someone's got[Dm]ta go
We [Am]mean it, but I promise we're not mean

[Pre-chorus 1]
And the [F]cry goes [Dm]out ([Am]Oh)
[Gm]They lose their minds for us
And how [F]it plays [Dm]out
(Oh) [Am]Now we're in the ring

[Chorus 1]
and we're coming for blood
[F](Oh, oh) You could try and take us
[Dm](Oh, oh) But we're the gladiators
[F](Oh, oh) Everyone a rager
[Dm](Oh, [Am]oh) But secretly they're saviours
[F]Glory and gore go hand in han[Dm]d
That's why we're making headlines
[F](Oh, oh) You could try and take us
[Dm](Oh, [Am]oh) But victory's contagious

[Verse 2]
[F]Delicate in every [Dm]way but one
(The swordplay)
God [Am]knows we like archaic [Gm]kinds of fun
(The old ways)
[F]Chance is the only [Dm]game I play with, baby
[Am]We let our battles choose us

[Pre-chorus 2]
And the [F]cry goes [Dm]out ([Am]Oh)
[Gm]They lose their minds for us
And how [F]it plays [Dm]out
(Oh) [Am]Now we're in the ring

[Chorus 2]
and we're coming for blood
[F](Oh, oh) You could try and take us
[Dm](Oh, oh) But we're the gladiators
[F](Oh, oh) Everyone a rager
[Dm](Oh, [Am]oh) But secretly they're saviours
[F]Glory and gore go hand in han[Dm]d
That's why we're making headlines
[F](Oh, oh) You could try and take us
[Dm](Oh, [Am]oh) But victory's contagious

[Bridge 1]
[Dm]No-one 'round here's good
at keeping their eyes closed
The sun's starting to light up
when we're walking [C]home[F]
[Dm]Tired little laughs, gold-lie promises
We'll always win at this
I don't ever think about death
It's all right if you do, it's fine
[Dm]We gladiate, but I guess
we're really fighting ourselves
Roughin' up our minds so we're ready
when the killtime [C]comes[F]
[Dm]Wide awake in bed, words in my brain
"Secretly you love this
do you even wanna go free?"
Let me in the ring

[Chorus 3]
I'll show you what that big word means
[F](Oh, oh) You could try and take us
[Dm](Oh, oh) But we're the gladiators
[F](Oh, oh) Everyone a rager
[Dm](Oh, [Am]oh) But secretly they're saviours
[F]Glory and gore go hand in han[Dm]d
That's why we're making headlines
[F](Oh, oh) You could try and take us
[Dm](Oh, [Am]oh) But victory's contagious
