[Intro] Am C Em Am (x8) Am [Verse 1]
       C           Em         Am
When I built these walls with bricks and stones

  C          Em  Am
I built them all around

  C           Em      Am
I built these walls a long time ago

    C           Em       Am
She ain't gonna take 'em down

        C           Em        Am
No, she ain't gonna break 'em down
[Interlude] C Em Am (x2) [Verse 2]
  C           Em         Am
I built these walls with my two hands

  C          Em       Am
I laid every single part

      C          Em      Am
And behind these walls a coward stands

   C         Em     Am
An ego and a broken heart

   C         Em     Am
An ego and a broken heart
[Chorus 1]
F                      C
Oh-oh-oh-oh, she comes around

                   G
See if I don't get lost

            Am
I won't get found

F                      C
Oh-oh-oh, and turn it 'round

                  G
See if I don't go up

             Am   G
I won't come down

             Am
I won't come down
[Interlude] C Em Am (x4) [Verse 3]
       C           Em     Am
When I built these walls around my chest

  C          Em        Am
I built them thick and strong

        C       Em      Am
Oh, and she can try her very best

            C         Em      Am
But they've been here for too long

C          Em        Am
  For long ago there was a girl

     C           Em        Am
That stood there where she stands

        C             Em   Am
But she reached right in into my heart

          C  Em     Am
And broke it in her hands

        C        Em     Am
Oh, she broke it in her hands
[Chorus 2]
F                  C
Oh-oh-oh-oh, and I suppose

              G
If there's no rain clouds

        Am
Nothing grows

F                    C
Oh-oh-oh, but this I know

               G
If I don't get high

            Am
I won't get low

F                        C
Oh-oh-oh, and I find her strange

             G
She wants to climb up

              Am
But she could fall

F                            C
Oh-oh-oh, she said, "I don't change"

               G
And I live and die

             Am    G
Behind these walls

             Am    G
Behind these walls

             Am    G
Behind these walls
[Outro] C Em Am C G Am (x2)
