Burn It Down

[Intro]
A#m C# Fm D# 2x


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


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


[Interlude]
C# Fm D#


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


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

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


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

you told that lie
                 Fm  
I played that soldier.

You played king
                D#  
And struck me down

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

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

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

as your blazes burn
              A#m~
And you were there at the turn
C#~                  Fm~  D#~
Waiting to let me know


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

We can't wait
     D#                A#m
To burn it to the ground


[Outro]

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

We can't wait
     D#                A#m
To burn it to the ground

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

We can't wait
     D#                A#m
To burn it to the ground

C# Fm D#
