Chords for BTS Gets Real About Their New Album, 'Love Yourself: Tear'

BTS, it is a pleasure to be reunited.
Welcome back to Los Angeles.
Wow!
What the_
[G] I've got my questions here in my handy dandy pocket on my little laptop here.
So yeah.
Wow!
Yeah, alright.
I had to come through.
Are you ARMY?
I am ARMY.
Oh, and my ARMY.
See, it's going to be a bit difficult reading my questions because there's photos of you
all over the spot.
So yeah, we're going to bear with that.
Thank you, thank you.
Alright, well congratulations.
Love yourself, T.O.
Huge, I'm looking forward to hearing it.
[A] Now the last time we met RM, it was [G] at the AMAs.
Yes.
And you said, and I quote,
Love is the key for the integration for all of society.
[Am] Right.
Now what kind of message are you trying to [G] send with this new era of Love Yourself?
So, _ basically love is a complex, right?
And [A] there's sort of some [Bm] sides that make us really feel bad or depressed.
There could be tear, there [G] could be sadness.
So, [Bm] [A] this time I want to focus on some [G] of the parts of love that we want to run away from.
So the name is tear.
And the [A] main single title, the name is going [G] to be the big love.
So we want to say that if you're untrue to yourself, the love won't last.
And [Bm] the love could be [A] _ between a person [G] and a person, but it could be between [D] me and myself.
Beautiful.
Love [G] that.
And of course V, [Bm] did you feel the [A] pressure releasing Singularity?
[G] It's the first song off this album.
You kind of set the tone for everything.
Was that a lot of pressure for you?
Of [A] course. _ _ _
[G] _ [D] _ Individually, _ _ [G] solo dance is very difficult.
_ Very hard.
It was a weird feeling to not have the group around you?
Yeah.
I've never seen him dance this hard.
_ He did well.
He did well.
He did an amazing job.
_ Of course, let's talk about the meanings of your songs.
Of [A] course, you were talking about that [D] earlier.
Do you feel a moral obligation as a successful group internationally around the world [G] to do social conscious [A] songs?
Should this be like a [G] necessity for people [Bm] with your level [D] of fame?
_ Even [G] if you're not a successful [A] _ _ _ _ [G] _
[Bm] singer,
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[E] I _ think it [A] gives you [G]
a lot of positive energy to talk to someone with influence.
_ I hope that a lot of people will release _ [B] positive [A] energy [D]
and the world will be in peace.
I hope [G] there's peace.
_ _ [A] That's beautiful.
I love that.
[G] Of course, the BBMAs are coming up, which [Ab] I'm super excited about.
We're super [G] excited to have you here for performing, as you [Bm] say, Fake Love.
[A] What are you most excited [G] for ARMY to [Bm] experience [D] during this new era of [G] BTS?
Because _ the band has [E] changed a lot since the very [A] beginning.
_ [E] _ _
Visual.
New visual.
New visuals.
[G] And new dance.
New song.
New makeup.
[A] New makeup.
[G] And new glasses.
Always changing the hair.
You've been on a crazy journey.
If you think back to 2013 [A] when you started and you look at what [G] is happening for all of you now,
what would you say has been your biggest change as a band?
Look at his shape.
He's been working out.
He's fit.
He looks good.
He was like a small child when we first saw him.
But now he's like the biggest man in the team.
_ You don't want to go against him.
I've got nothing.
Look at this.
[B] There's nothing there.
Me too.
_ [Am] We're just [G] sticks.
Look at his hair.
Beautiful hair.
Lots of changes.
Look at your face.
[Bm] Love that.
[A] Now, if you could say something to [Em] yourselves back in 2013, [Bm] _
what would you say?
Would you have any advice for yourself?
[G] Because I'm sure you would have had no idea that things were going to go this way for you.
_ Please study English.
Please _ study English. _
[E] And Japanese [A] too.
[G] Hey J-Hope, _ your [D] hope is big energy.
[G] Cheer up.
[A] Give your _ hope [G] for all the people.
Hey Namjoon, don't name yourself a rap monster.
You're a human.
Yeah, you're a human, not a monster.
[D] You're not a monster.
You're a beautiful human. _
I love you, bro.
Hey [G] TaeTae, [Bm] I'm proud of you.
[A] _ _ [G] Do your best.
[Bm] Hey Jimin, _
[D] _ [Ab] you're nice.
[Dm] Nice.
Keep [A] going.
Keep going.
Hey Jin, [G] let's practice [Bm] [D] hard more.
Please [G] study English.
[A] _
_ Please.
[Ab] Me too.
Yeah, love that.
There you [D] go.
Charity work is a [Gm] huge thing for you guys.
The last [Bm] time we met, we spoke about [A] UNICEF giving back.
But it's [G] not only you that are giving back.
Your fans, the ARMY, have been inspired by you to give back.
I've seen fan projects where people are giving thousands of dollars to charities,
in particular UNICEF.
Why do you think it's so important to give back?
Sometimes we truly feel like we're getting so much love,
even more than we deserve.
So it's important to give back for some people [A] who get so much love.
[G] Because love is not [Bm] like [D]
a resource.
We [G] can't give back and [A] back and back all over the world.
[G] So [Bm] we just feel [D] like it's really important to give back.
[G] _ Now, we met [A] this time last year for the first time.
[G] And I asked what the next step was for BTS.
And Suga said that the goal [E] was to perform at the Billboard Music [D] Awards.
And look where we are now.
_ So what's the next, next step [G] for BTS?
_ [A] Next step?
Yeah, the next step.
_ _ [G] _ _
Maybe_
Grammy?
There you go!
Oh, _ Grammy!
You say that now, but watch.
This time [A] next year, it'll be like, so the Grammy's_
We'll see.
Grammy's a whole other world. _
Okay, I think [G] _ [Bm] he said it [D] first time.
_ [Bb] _ [G] Yeah, he's not joking, baby.
Now, of course, [A] the ARMY know you for [G] so many different things.
There are so many reasons why the ARMY love you.
[A] But if there was just one thing that you want BTS to be remembered for,
say in 20 years [G] time, what would [Bm] that thing be?
[D]
They were always trying to show _ [G] _ their sincerity.
_ [A] _
_ _ [N] Beautiful, of course.
And I know that's what the ARMY are going to remember you for.
The ARMY are super proud of you.
Congratulations on the new album.
Congratulations on Hope World!
There we go.
_ Thank you, Liam.
_ Liam's the best. Wow! _
Wow!
So there we go.
Congrats, BTS.
_ Love, Liam.
Oh, come on. Thank you!
_ _ Wow!
[G] _ Wow!
It smells amazing.
_ _ _ [Bm] _
[A] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [Bm] _
[D] _ _ [C] _ _ _ Got to make my hair look good, right?
We're _ good, we're good.
