Verse 1:
We built this [B]up together
on a [G#m]shaky ground
[F#] Before too long it
started [E]crumbling down
So I got [G#m]out before the
whole thing [B]hit the floor
[F#] But you knew better
I'd be [E]back for more
And when[G#m] I finally [F#]did
it was s[B]trange to [E]see
[G#m] That you re[F#]built it
with no [B]help from [E]me
[G#m] The same foun[F#]dation
but the [B]rest is [E]new
[G#m] You made this
[F#]it belongs to [B]you
Chorus 1:
It all went [E]by too [F#]fast
[G#m]No time to re[C#]act
Once you have [E]fired the shots
They [F#]can't be taken [B]back
Verse 2:
You spread your [B]roots
and make your things
for [G#m]all of me
[F#] The ground is soft but
there's no [E]room to breathe
You had to [G#m]push and
force into ab[B]normal growth
[F#] We could have dreamed
it if we [E]took it slow
But from the[G#m] highest [F#]branches
there's much [B]thinner [E]air
[G#m] And things are [F#]different
when you're [B]way up [E]there
[G#m] Now all I [F#]want is you
to [B]come back [E]down
[G#m] And start a[F#]gain
on level [B]ground
(Repeat Chorus 1)
Bridge:
[E] I went and left you for dead
[B] But you just [F#]got up again
[E] And every fight just
seems to [B]make you s[F#]tronger
[E] I tried to tear this apart
[B] But it was [C#m]blown
from the start
[E] Cause [F#]you just had to
[G]grab them all and run
Guitar Solo: B-G#m-F#-E- x2 E--
Verse 3:
But from the[G#m] highest [F#]branches
there's much [B]thinner [E]air
[G#m] And things are [F#]different
when you're [B]way up [E]there
[G#m] Now all I [F#]want is you
to [B]come back [E]down
[G#m] And start a[F#]gain
on level [B]ground
(Repeat Chorus 1)
Chorus 2:
It all went [E]by too [F#]fast[G] [G#m]
Never could [C#]react
Once you have [E]fired the shots
F# B B(hold)
They can't be taken back
