Verse:
Come let us make bricks
and burn them hard
We'll build a city
with a tower for the world
and climb so we can reach
anything we may propose
(anything at all)
Chorus:
(Pick Slide)
Build me up, Tear me down
like a skyscraper
e D C# A
Build me up, then tear down
These joining walls
So they can't climb at all
Verse 2:
I know why you tore it down that day
You throught, if you got caught
we'd all go away
Like a spoiled little baby
who can't come out to play
You had your revenge
Chorus:
Build me up, tears me down
like a skyscraper
Build me up, then tear down
these joining walls
So they can't climb at all

Well madness reins, and paradise drown
When babble's walls came crashing down
Now the echo's roar, for the story lived
A /B e B C# /G#
That was hardly understood, and never any good.....
Chorus:
Build me up, tears me down
like a skyscraper
Build me up, then tear down

So they can't climb at all
