[Intro]
F#m A C#m B 2x
[Verse]
F#m A
The cycle repeated
C#m B
as explosions broke in the sky
F#m A
all that I needed
C#m B
was the one thing I couldn't find
F#m
And you were there at the turn
A C#m B
Waiting to let me know
[Chorus]
F#m A
We're building it up
E B
To break it back down
F#m A
We're building it up
E
To burn it down
B
We can't wait
F#m
To burn it to the ground
[Interlude]
A C#m B
[Verse]
F#m A
The colors conflicted
C#m B
as the flames climbed into the clouds
F#m A
I wanted to fix this / but
C#m B
couldn't stop from tearing it down
F#m
And you were there at the turn
A C#m B
caught in the burning glow
F#m
And I was there at the turn
A C#m B
Waiting to let you know
[Chorus]
F#m A
We're building it up
E B
To break it back down
F#m A
We're building it up
E
To burn it down
We can't wait
B
To burn it to the ground
[Bridge]
F#m
You told me yes. You held me high
A
And I believed when you told that lie
C#m
I played that soldier. You played king
B
And struck me down when I kissed that ring
F#m
You lost that right to hold that crown
A
I built you up but you let me down
C#m
so when you fall. I'll take my turn
B
and fan the flames as your blazes burn
F#m~
And you were there at the turn
A~ C#m~ B~
Waiting to let me know
[Chorus]
F#m A
We're building it up
E B
To break it back down
F#m A
We're building it up
E
To burn it down
We can't wait
B F#m
To burn it to the ground
[Outro]
so when you fall / I'll take my turn
A E
and fan the flames as your blazes burn
We can't wait
B F#m
To burn it to the ground
so when you fall / I'll take my turn
A E
and fan the flames as your blazes burn
We can't wait
B F#m
To burn it to the ground
