    Bulletproof Heart

  • Artist:

    My Chemical Romance

Note to the editors: Oy vey. I was up late last night and apparently forgot what 
key I was transcribing. Feel free to disregard that last version of this I 
submitted. This should be correct.

Bulletproof Heart
My Chemical Romance
Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys (2010)


Heads up: There are subtle differences between
a good deal of of the sections each time they
come around, but the end of the second
prechorus and the last chorus are especially
different; watch out for the G#m-A#m-B-C# run.
Oh, and if diminished 7 chords aren't your bag,
the Ddim7 (notes D, F, G#, B) can be
substituted with an A# or an A#7.

Enjoy~
- Dack


[Intro]

F#


[Chorus]

F#
Gravity
               Ebm
Don't mean too much to me
             B
I'm who I've got to be
               C#
These pigs are after me
Ddim7
After you
Ebm
Run away
            F#
Like it was yesterday
             B
And we could run away
            D
If we could run away
E             F#
Run away from here


[Vamp]

[Verse]

N.C.                F#
I got a bulletproof heart
B         C#           F#
You got a hollow point smile
B           C#      Ebm
Me and your runaway scars
                 B
Got a photograph dream
       C#      F#       F  F#
On the getaway mile
N.C.                      F#
Let's blow a hole in this town
B          C#             F#
And do our talking with a laser beam
B       C#          Ebm
Gunning out of this place
              B
In a bullet's embrace
           C#    F#
Then we'll do it again


[Prechorus]

F#      C#/F Ebm
How can they say
                  F#/C#     B
"Jenny, could you come back home?"
                 C#        Ebm
'Cause everybody knows you don't
           F#/C#
Ever wanna come back
B             C#         N.C.
Let me be the one to save you


[Chorus]

F#
Gravity
      F#/F     Ebm
Don't mean too much to me
    F#/C#    B
I'm who I've got to be
               C#
These pigs are after me
Ddim7
After you
Ebm
Run away
     C#/F   F#
Like it was yesterday
              B
When we could run away
              D
When we could run away
E             F#
Run away from here

[Verse]
N.C.                     F#
I'm shooting out of this room
B         C#                  F#
Because I sure don't like the company
B         C#              Ebm
Stop your preaching right there
                      B
'Cause I really don't care
         C#     F#       F  F#
And I'll do it again
F#
So get me out of my head
(Doo wop doo wop doo wop doo wop, let's go)
B           C#              F#
'Cause it's getting kind of cramped, you know
(Doo wop doo wop doo wop doo wop, let's go)
B      C#       Ebm
Coming ready or not
(Doo wop doo wop)
                    B
When the motor gets hot
(Doo wop doo wop)
       C#    F#
We can do it again
(Let's go now)


[Prechorus]
   F# C#/F Ebm
The papers say
                   F#/C#     B
"Johnny, won't you come back home?"
                 Bbm       Abm
'Cause everybody knows you don't
Bbm
Want to give yourself up
B                  C#            N.C.
Tell the truth and God will save you

[Chorus]

F#
Gravity
      F#/F     Ebm

These pigs are after me
Ddim7
After you
Ebm
Run away
     C#/F   F#
Like it was yesterday
             B
And we could run away
              D
When we could run away
E             F#
Run away from here


[Vamp]

F#      D       F#      D       A


[Bridge]

    F#
And though I know
    D
How much you hate this
F#
Are you gonna be
    D
The one to save us
A
From the black
    E
And hopeless feeling?
D
Will you mean it
         E
When the end comes reeling?

F#
Hold your heart
  D
Into this darkness
F#                  D
Will it ever be the light
             A
To shine you out
            E
Or fail and leave you stranded?
D
I ain't gonna be
    E
The one left standing
D
You ain't gonna be
    E
The one left standing
D
We ain't gonna be
    E
The ones left standing


[Chorus]

N.C.    F#
Gravity
      F#/F     N.C.       Ebm
Don't mean too much to me
            B   
Is this our destiny?
              C#
This world is after me
Ddim7
After you
Ebm
Run away
     C#     B
Like it was yesterday
    C#       Abm
And we could run away
Bbm       B
Run away, run away
C#            F#
Run away from here


[Outro]

F#       C# B     C#    
                  Yeah
F#       C# B     C#    
              Away from here
Ebm      C# B   C#   F#
           Away from here
