Chord J. Maya – Achilles Heel
[Intro]
Bbm Gb Db F F7
[Verse 1]
Bbm
I swear on my life and
the River Styx
Gb
I never thought it'd
be you I'd miss
Db
Now I'm dangling by the
F
ankle somewhere cold
Bbm
Like Sisyphus pushing that
rock uphill
Gb
Or Echo falling for a daffodil
Db
You lured me like a
F
siren to the shore
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Bbm F
Now I can't keep this love
Bbm Ab Gb
'Cause it always hurts too much
Db Eb
I keep crumbling, I keep stumbling
Ab F
'Cause you've become my crutch
[Chorus]
Ab
Loving you's my Achilles' heel
Bbm Abm Ab Gb
Drop my guard when you're with me,
F
I can't deal
Bbm Ab Gb
I just hate when I walk on
Ab Bbm
these pins and needles
Ab Gb Bbm
I want to kill this Achilles' heel
[Verse 2]
You said you wanted me,
no strings attached
Gb
I guess I have the Fates
to thank for that
Db
Call me Icarus
F
'cause baby, you're my sun
Bbm
But now I'm turning to stone
looking in your eyes
Gb
'Cause you love hard,
Db
Kore only half the time
F
Athena'd be jealous of the web
you spun
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Bbm Cm
Like Atlas held too much
Bbm Ab Gb
I feel crushed under this love
Db
'Cause with those nectar lips
Eb
And ambrosia hips
Ab F
Boy, you've become my drug
[Chorus]
Bbm Abm Ab Gb Ab
Loving you's my Achilles' heel
Bbm Abm Ab Gb
Drop my guard when you're with me,
I can't deal
Bbm Ab Gb
I just hate when I walk on
Ab Bbm
these pins and needles
Ab Gb
I want to kill this Achilles' heel
[Post-Chorus]
Bbm Ab Gb Ab
Mm, mm, kill this Achilles' heel
Bbm Ab
(mm, mm)
Gb Bbm
Don't wanna have to heal
Ab Gb Ab
(Mm) Achilles, Achilles' Heel
Bbm Ab Gb
I don't want to 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 Fm
Finally taking back my fire)
Bbm
Your horse is in the gate again
But this time I won't let it in
Gb
I'm 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 Ab Gb Ab
Loving you's my Achilles' heel
Bm Abm Ab Gb
Drop my guard when you're with me,
I can't deal

I just hate when I walk on
Ab Bbm
these pins and needles
Ab Gb
I want to kill this Achilles' heel
[Post-Chorus]

Mm, mm, kill this Achilles' Heel
