Dm Em
between the Em and Bm chords play this ---- (F) -0-2-4-2-0-
intro Dm Em Dm Em Dm Em F D
IF sit at my taFble aFnd wage war on mysFelf IFt seFems like it's alFl...it's all for noFthing IF know the baFrricades, Fand I know the morFtar in the walFl breaks I recFognize the weapons,F I used them well F TDmhis is my mistake. LEmet me make it good
IDm raised the wall, and IEm will be the one to knock it dFown D
I've a rich understanding of my finest defenses
I proclaim that claims are left unstated,
I demand a rematch
I decree a stalemate
I divine my deeper motives
I recognize the weapons
I've practiced them well. I fitted them myself
It's amazing what devices you can sympathize...empathize
This is my mistake. Let me make it good
I raised the walls, and I will be the one to knock it down
I lose track of where the chords occur over the words. They just switch between Am and C until the last part of this section...
RDmeach out for mFe and hold Dmme tight. Hold that meFmory
Let Dmmy machine taFlk to me. LDmet my machine tDalk to me F
This is my world
And I am the world leader pretend
This is my life
And this is my time
I have been given the freedom
To do as I see fit
It's high time I've razed the walls
That I've constructed
It's amazing what devices you can sympathize...emapathize
This is my mistake. Let me make it good
I raised the walls, and I will be the one to knock it down
You fill in the mortar. You fill in the harmony
You fill in the mortar. I raised the walls
And I'm the only one
I will be the one to knock it down
end on Em
