J. Maya – Achilles Heel

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
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                 Bbm
Mm, mm, kill this Achilles' Heel
 Ab   Gb                 F Bbm Ab
(Mm) Don't wanna have to he-e-a-l
 Gb             Ab
Achilles, Achilles' Heel
Bbm     Ab      
I don't want to have to heal
