Burn It Down

[Intro]
Cm D# Gm F 2x


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


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


[Interlude]
D# Gm F


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


[Chorus]
                  Cm  D#
We're building it up
                  C  G
To break it back down
                  Cm  D#
We're building it up
           A#
To burn it down

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


[Bridge]
Cm
You told me yes. You held me high
           D#  
And I believed when

you told that lie
                 Gm  
I played that soldier.

You played king
                F  
And struck me down

when I kissed that ring
                 Cm  
You lost that right

to hold that crown
             D#
I built you up but you let me down
             Gm  
so when you fall.

I'll take my turn
               F  
and fan the flames

as your blazes burn
              Cm~
And you were there at the turn
D#~                  Gm~  F~
Waiting to let me know


[Chorus]
                  Cm  D#
We're building it up
                  C  G
To break it back down
                  Cm  D#
We're building it up
           A#
To burn it down

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


[Outro]

so when you fall / I'll take my turn
               D#   
  and fan the flames
                      A#
as your blazes burn

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

so when you fall / I'll take my turn
               D#   
  and fan the flames
                      A#
as your blazes burn

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

D# Gm F
Cm  D#  Gm  F
