Burn It Down

[Intro]
C#m E G#m F# 2x


[Verse]
           C#m    E
The cycle repeated
     G#m                     F#
as explosions broke in the sky
            C#m   E
all that I needed
        G#m                    F#
was the one thing I couldn't find
             C#m
And you were there at the turn
E                 G#m  F#
Waiting to let me know


[Chorus]
                  C#m  E
We're building it up
                  C  G
To break it back down
                  C#m  E
We're building it up
           B
To burn it down
         F#
We can't wait
                      C#m
To burn it to the ground


[Interlude]
E G#m F#


[Verse]
               C#m  E
The colors conflicted
         G#m           
  as the flames climbed
            F#
into the clouds
            C#m   E
I wanted to fix this / but
         G#m                    F#
couldn't stop from tearing it down
              C#m
And you were there at the turn
E                      G#m  F#
caught in the burning glow
           C#m
And I was there at the turn
E                  G#m  F#
Waiting to let you know


[Chorus]
                  C#m  E
We're building it up
                  C  G
To break it back down
                  C#m  E
We're building it up
           B
To burn it down

We can't wait
     F#
To burn it to the ground


[Bridge]
C#m
You told me yes. You held me high
           E  
And I believed when

you told that lie
                 G#m  
I played that soldier.

You played king
                F#  
And struck me down

when I kissed that ring
                 C#m  
You lost that right

to hold that crown
             E
I built you up but you let me down
             G#m  
so when you fall.

I'll take my turn
               F#  
and fan the flames

as your blazes burn
              C#m~
And you were there at the turn
E~                  G#m~  F#~
Waiting to let me know


[Chorus]
                  C#m  E
We're building it up
                  C  G
To break it back down
                  C#m  E
We're building it up
           B
To burn it down

We can't wait
     F#                C#m
To burn it to the ground


[Outro]

so when you fall / I'll take my turn
               E   
  and fan the flames
                      B
as your blazes burn

We can't wait
     F#                C#m
To burn it to the ground

so when you fall / I'll take my turn
               E   
  and fan the flames
                      B
as your blazes burn

We can't wait
     F#                C#m
To burn it to the ground

E G#m F#
C#m  E  G#m  F#
