Streetlight Manifesto – Skyscraper (Guitar)

G#   A
come let us make bricks

    E         B   C
and burn them hard,

C#m           A           E             B
we'll build a city with a tower for the world

    E               B
and climb so we can reach

C#m             A
anything we may propose,

E  B        A
anything at all

         C#m         B
build me up, tear me down

       A         E
like a skyscraper,

         C#m     B
build me up, and tear down

      G#      A
these joining walls

   E          B        A
so they can't climb at all

   C#m        B        A
so they can't climb at all

G#           A       E                 B   C
yeah, I know why you tore it down that day,

C#m               A
you thought, that if you got caught

E            B
we'd all go away,

       E              B
like a spoiled little baby

    C#m                A
who can't come out and play,

E       B     A
you had your revenge

         C#m         B
build me up, tear me down

       A         E
like a skyscraper,

         C#m     B
build me up, and tear down

      G#      A
these joining walls

   E          B        A
so they can't climb at all

   C#m        B        A
so they can't climb at all

     E
well madness reigned

     B
when Babel's walls came a-crashing down

        C#m
now the echoes roar

         A
that was hardly understood

    E     B   A
and never any good

             C#m         B
so, build me up, tear me down

       A         E
like a skyscraper,

         C#m     B
build me up, and tear down

      G#      A
these joining walls

   E          B        A
so they can't climb at all

   C#m        B        A
so they can't climb at all
