Misc Originals – Caylin Mcclellan - Building (Guitar)

C       Am               F  C
reality was too much for me

      C                   Am                F  C
so i got the supplies and i worked diligently

         C                                Am
i made every brick with care to make sure you cant tell its there

         F                             C
so i can ignore the fact im lying to myself

            C                                  Am
and after every bricks been placed and every thought had been erased

    F                                   C
im too far gone and nothing seems to help

C
im building a wall

Am
dont try to tear it down

F                                C
im floating until i hit the ground

C
im building a wall

Am
my castle in the clouds

F                                        C
where everything is perfect and nobody frowns

 C
i know none of its real

          Am
but its what i wanna feel

       G7
so be quiet even though im lying

    G7

C                         Am               F  C
throughout my life ive learned to stay away

C                                    Am                F  C
from getting too attached because nothing good can stay

C                                  Am
if i get attached now they might tear my wall down

       F                                     C
and i cant have the thoughts come rushing back

C
i know the things ive kept at bay

Am
will always come back someday

F                                           C
and im afraid watching my barricade start to crack

C
im buiding a wall

Am
dont try to tear it down

F                             C
im floating until i hit the ground

C
im building a wall

Am
my castle in the clouds

F                                     C
where everything is perfect with no frowns

C
