[Intro]
C Dm Am Am x2
[Verse 1]
C
Here you are again
Dm
You missed the mark again
Am Am
It's getting dark
C
As you're piecing up
Dm
All of the pieces of
Am Am
A hardened heart
C
But I thought I'd take a shot at love
Dm
It's all anyone is speaking of
Am Am
At the moment
C
And I know that I had called you here
Dm
I just couldn't let you in, my dear
Am
Am I broken
[Chorus]
Am C
I built up these walls
Dm
Oh so goddamn tall
Am
Now I can't see
Am C
How I wish they'd all
Dm
Crumble up and fall
Am
But that one's on me
C Dm
That one's on me
Am
That one's on me
C Dm
That one's on me
Am
That one's on me
[Verse 2]
C
Another heart is scorned
Dm
Another scar has formed
Am Am
A work of art
C
A vast collection of
Dm
All of the could've-beens
Am
Doomed from the start
Am C
So lay on me another empty kiss
Dm
Maybe a couple hundred more of this
Am
I won't be dead inside
Am C
I never meant to turn and disappear
Dm
I just couldn't let you in, my dear
Am
So I run and hide
[Chorus]
Am C
I built up these walls
Dm
Oh so goddamn tall
Am
Now I can't see
Am C
How I wish they'd all
Dm
Crumble up and fall
Am
But that one's on me
Am C
I built up these walls
Dm
Oh so goddamn tall
Am
Now I can't see
Am C
How I wish they'd all
Dm
Crumble up and fall
Am
But that one's on me
Am C
I built up these walls
Dm
Oh so goddamn tall
Am
Now I can't see
Am C
How I wish they'd all
Dm
Crumble up and fall
Am
But that one's on me
[Outro]
Am C
I built up these walls
Dm
Oh so goddamn tall
Am
Now I can't see
Am C
How I wish they'd all
Dm
Crumble up and fall
Am
But that one's on me
