	  		Intro: Am  F

Riff 1 

 

Am 
Cause I know that time has numbered my days 
                     F                  Riff 1 
And I go along with everything you say 
Am 
But I write home laughing, look at me now 
,                               F             Riff 1 
The walls of my town they come crumbling down 
Am 
And my ears hear the call of my unborn sons 
                          F                    Riff 1 
And I know their choices color all I've done 
Am 
But I'll explain it all to the watchman's son 
                      F 
I never lived a year better spent in love  Riff 1 

       Am      G         F       C 
Cause I know my weakness know my voice 
    Am   G          F        C          G 
So now believe in grace and choice 
      Am      G         F       C 
And I know perhaps my heart is vast 
    Am   G          F        C          G 
But I'll be born without a mask 

Woo! 
        Am 
Like the city that nurtured my greed and my pride 
                    F           Riff 1 
I stretch my arms into the sky 
     Am 
I cry Babel! Babel! Look at me now 
                               F                    Riff 1 
Then the walls of my town, they come crumbling down 
       Am 
You ask where will we stand in the winds that will howl 
                        F              Riff 1 
As all we see will slip into the cloud 
         Am 
So come down from your mountain and stand where we've been 
                         F                    Riff 1 
You know our breath is weak and our body thin 

Am          F              C 
  Press my nose up to the glass around your heart 
Am             F           C 
  I should've known I was weaker from the start 
Am             F                      C       G      Am 
  You'll build your walls and I will play my bloody part 
     C    C     G     C 
To tear, tear them down 
                 Am    Am  F      C 
Well I'm gonna tear, tear them down 

       Am      G         F       C 
'Cuz I know my weakness know my voice 
    Am   G          F        C          G 
So now believe in grace and choice 
      Am      G         F       C 
And I know perhaps my heart is farce 
    Am   G          F        C          G 
But I'll be born without a mask
