Ab   A 
come let us make bricks 
    E         B   C 
and burn them hard, 
C#m           A           E             B 
we'll build a city with a tower for the world 
    E               B 
and climb so we can reach 
C#m             A 
anything we may propose, 
E  B        A 
anything at all 

C#m B build me up, tear me down A E like a skyscraper, C#m B build me up, and tear down Ab A these joining walls E B A so they can't climb at all C#m B A so they can't climb at all
Ab A E B C yeah, I know why you tore it down that day, C#m A you thought, that if you got caught E B we'd all go away, E B like a spoiled little baby C#m A who can't come out and play, E B A you had your revenge
C#m B build me up, tear me down A E like a skyscraper, C#m B build me up, and tear down Ab A these joining walls E B A so they can't climb at all C#m B A so they can't climb at all
Instrumental:(It's just the chords for the verse then the chorus...) E well madness reigned and paradise drowned B when Babel's walls came a-crashing down C#m now the echoes roar a story writ A that was hardly understood E B A and never any good
C#m B so, build me up, tear me down A E like a skyscraper, C#m B build me up, and tear down Ab A these joining walls E B A so they can't climb at all C#m B A so they can't climb at all
