Skyscraper

G#      A                      E            B C
   Come let us make bricks and burn them hard
C#m           A            E             B
We'll build a city with a tower for the world
    E               B         C#m          A
And climb so we can reach anything we may propose
E  B         A
Anything at all

[Chorus]
         C#m         B            A         E
Build me up, tear me down, like a skyscraper
         C#m      B               G#           A
Build me up, then tear down these joining walls
   E          B        A
So they can't climb at all

[Verse 2]
G#        A        E                 B  C
   I know why, you tore it down that day
C#m              A                  E            B
You thought that if you got caught, we'd all go away
       E              B         C#m                A
Like a spoiled little baby, who can't come out and play
E       B         A
You had your revenge

[Chorus]
         C#m         B            A         E
Build me up, tear me down, like a skyscraper
         C#m      B               G#           A
Build me up, then tear down these joining walls
   E          B        A
So they can't climb at all

[Bridge]
E
Well madness reigned, and paradise drowned
B
When Babel's walls came crashing down
C#m
Now the echoes roar for a story writ
         A                        E     B   A
That was hardly understood, and never any good

[Chorus]
         C#m         B            A       E
Build me up, tear me down, like a skyscraper
         C#m      B               G#      A
Build me up, then tear down these joining walls
   E          B        A
So they can't climb at all

[Outro]
A B C#m B A
Builllld Meeee Uuuuuuuuuuuuup
