( Am ) ( E ) ( Dm ) ( Am )
We built a tower for all the town to see
( Am ) ( E ) ( Dm ) ( Am )
Bricks, concrete, metal and memories
( Dm ) ( Am )
Inside the rocks and stone, spaces became our home
( Dm ) ( E )
Arguments echoing, love made so high
( Am ) ( E )
Searching for words for the end
( Dm ) ( Am )
But we built the tower too high
( F ) ( C ) ( G ) ( F )
When the light finally dies and we look to the sky
( C ) ( G )
Will we finally know why
( F ) ( C )
They call the dawn the morning
( F ) ( Am - Am/G Am/F# F )
And I wish we'd said goodbye
( Am ) ( E ) ( Dm ) ( Am )
Years flying by, trapped all alone in the sky
( Am ) ( E ) ( Dm ) ( Am )
And you stories down and all of our loved ones outside
( Dm )
Our words turned out all wrong
( Am )
Intentions lost in halls
( Dm ) ( E )
Now all I want to do is tear down the walls
( Am ) ( E )
Searching for words for the end
( Dm ) ( Am )
But we built the tower too high
( F ) ( C ) ( G ) ( F )
When the light finally dies and we look to the sky
( C ) ( G )
Will we finally know why,
( F ) ( C )
They call the dawn the morning,
( F ) ( Am - Am/G Am/F# F )
And I wish we'd said goodbye
( Dm ) ( Am )
Seems like the final day you'll ever come my way
( Dm ) ( E )
So please forgive me if I hold on too tight, too tight
( E )
Tight, tight, tight
( Am - Am/G Am/F# )
There's a tower
( Dm )
There's a tower
( E )
There's a tower, crumbling
( Am - Am/G Am/F# )
There's a tower
( Dm )
There's a tower
( E )
There's a tower
( E ) ( Am )
Crumbling, crumbling, down
( Am ) ( E )
So when the light finally dies
( Dm ) ( Am )
I'll know the answer to why
( Am ) ( E )
They call the dawn, mourning
( Dm ) ( Am )
Wish I could've told you goodbye.
