verse 1 :
B
we built this up together
G#m
on a shaky ground
F#
before too long it
E
started crumbling down
G#m
so i got out before the
B
whole thing hit the floor
F#
but you knew better
E
i’d be back for more
G#m F#
and when i finally did
B E
it was strange to see
G#m F#
that you rebuilt it
B E
with no help from me
G#m F#
the same foundation
B E
but the rest is new
G#m
you made this
F# B
it belongs to you
chorus 1 :
E F#
it all went by too fast
G#m C#
no time to react
E
once you have fired the shots
F# B
they can’t be taken back
verse 2 :
B
you spread your roots
and make your things
G#m
for all of me
F#
the ground is soft but
E
there’s no room to breathe
G#m
you had to push and
B
force into abnormal growth
F#
we could have dreamed
E
it if we took it slow
G#m F#
but from the highest branches
B E
there’s much thinner air
G#m F#
and things are different
B E
when you’re way up there
G#m F#
now all i want is you
B E
to come back down
G#m F#
and start again
B
on level ground
( repeat chorus 1 )
bridge :
E
i went and left you for dead
B F#
but you just got up again
E
and every fight just
B F#
seems to make you stronger
E
i tried to tear this apart
B C#m
but it was blown
from the start
E F#
cause you just had to
G
grab them all and run
guitar solo : B – G#m – F# – E – x2 E – –
verse 3 :
G#m F#
but from the highest branches
B E
there’s much thinner air
G#m F#
and things are different
B E
when you’re way up there
G#m F#

B E
to come back down
G#m F#
and start again

on level ground
( repeat chorus 1 )
chorus 2 :
E F# G G#m
it all went by too fast
C#
never could react
E
once you have fired the shots
F# B B ( hold )
they can’t be taken back
