This is the chords of Fight Or Flight by Conan Gray on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.

[Verse 1]
F G
Something’s gotten into you
C Am
You don’t really look at me the way you used to
F G
And I’m hoping it ain’t true
C Am
Every single rumor that I’ve heard of you

[Pre-Chorus 1]
F G
Say you were off with someone that I don’t know
C Am
Callin’ other people on your telephone
F G C
Kinda wish I didn’t know

[Chorus]
F G C
Well, fight or flight, I’d rather die
Am
Than have to cry in front of you
F G C
Fight or flight, I’d rather lie
Am
Than tell you I’m in love with you
F G C
My eyes are welling up
Am
If you admit there’s someone new
F G C
It’s my life, fight or flight

[Verse 2]
F G
You tell me it ain’t what it seems
C Am
But, baby, this is lookin’ like a crime scene
F G
There’s clothes thrown on the balcony
C Am
Hey, you smell like perfume out a magazine

[Pre-Chorus 2]
F G
I’m throwing all the shit out my window
C Am
Telling you I wish that we had never spoke
F G C
Baby, I already know

[Bridge]
A E
Now there’s someone at my door
A E
Someone that I’ve met before
F G
They’ve got eyes like mine
C
A pretty smile
Am F
And they’ve been crying for a while
G C A
‘Cause they also didn’t know
F G A
That a lover loved us both
