Burn It Down

[Intro]
Gm A# Dm C 2x


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


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


[Interlude]
A# Dm C


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


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

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


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

you told that lie
                 Dm  
I played that soldier.

You played king
                C  
And struck me down

when I kissed that ring
                 Gm  
You lost that right

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

I'll take my turn
               C  
and fan the flames

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


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

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


[Outro]

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

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

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

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

A# Dm C
Gm  A#  Dm  C
