Em              C
Take a breath, take it deep
         Am               B7
Calm yourself, he says to me
       Em                 C
If you play, you play for keeps
         Am                B7
Take the gun, and count to three
             Em          C
I'm sweating now, moving slow
           Am                B7
No time to think, my turn to go

Chorus:
                   Em    C
And you can see my heart beating
D                         Am
You can see it through my chest
              Em                C
Said I'm terrified. but I'm not leaving
  D                               Am
I know that I must must pass this test
B7               Em
So just pull the trigger

      Em            C
Say a prayer, to yourself
                   Am                 B7
He says close your eyes, sometimes it helps
           Em           C
And then I get, a scary thought
          Am                     B7
That he's here, means he's never lost

Chorus:
                   Em    C
And you can see my heart beating
D                         Am
You can see it through my chest
              Em                C
Said I'm terrified, but I'm not leaving
  D                               Am
I know that I must must pass this test
B7               C
So just pull the trigger

           G
As my life flashes before my eyes
    Am                    Em          D
I'm wondering will I ever see another sunrise?
C                      A/C#
 So many won't get the chance to say goodbye
         D                                    D#dim
But it's too late too pick up the value of my life

                   Em    C
And you can see my heart beating
D                         Am
You can see it through my chest
              Em                C
Said I'm terrified, but I'm not leaving
  D                               Am
I know that I must must pass this test

                   Em    C
And you can see my heart beating
D                         Am
You can see it through my chest

About this song: Russian Roulette

"Russian Roulette" is a song performed by Barbadian singer Rihanna. Written and produced by Ne-Yo and Chuck Harmony, the song serves as the lead single from Rihanna's fourth studio album Rated R. It premiered on radio October 20, 2009. The lyrics metaphorically refer to the game of love in which you take chances even though anyone can get hurt. In an interview with Fuse, Rihanna called the song "poetry" and not literally about a game of russian roulette.
