Burn It Down

[Intro]
G#m B D#m C# 2x


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


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


[Interlude]
B D#m C#


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


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

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


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

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

You played king
                C#  
And struck me down

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

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

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

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


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

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


[Outro]

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

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

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

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

B D#m C#
G#m  B  D#m  C#
