[G] [D]
[Bm] I know that time is numbing my days and I've gone [G] along with [D] everything you say.
[Bm] But I write home laughing, look at me now, that the walls of my town, [G] they come crumbling [D] now.
[Bm] And my ears hear the call of my unborn sons and I know the [G] choices color on.
[D]
But [Bm] I'll explain it all to the watchman's son, I ain't ever lived a [G] year better spent [D] in love.
Cause I know my weakness, know my voice, and I'll [A] believe [D] in grace and charm.
[A] And I know perhaps my heart was [G] sparse, but I'll be born [D] without a mark.

[Bm] Like the city that nurtured my greed and my pride, I stretched [G] my arms into [D] the sky.
[Bm] I cry, Babel, Babel, look at me now, that the walls of my [G] town, they come [D] crumbling now.
[Bm] You ask where we stand and the wind still will howl, it's all we [G] see, we'll slip [D] into the clouds.
[Bm] We'll come down from your mountain and stand where we've been, you know our [G] breath is weak
and [D] our body.
[G] Press my nose up [D] to the glass around your heart.
[F#m] I should have known [D] I was weaker from the start.
[F#m] You'll [G] build your walls, I will play my bloody part.
To tear, tear [D] them down.
Well [Bm] I'm gonna tear, tear [D] them down.
Cause I know [Bm] my weakness, know my voice, and [D] I'll believe in grace and [A] charm.
And [D] I know perhaps my heart was sparse, but I'll be born without a [A] mark.
