Capo: 1st fret
Intro: G Cadd9 Em7 D
(Verse 1)
G
Skies are crying
Cadd9 D
I am watching catching teardrops in my hands
G Cadd9 D
Only silence, as it's ending, like we never had a chance
Em7 Cadd9 G D
Do you have to make me feel like there's nothing left of me?
(Chorus)
G Cadd9
You can take everything I have
Em7 D
You can break everything I am
G Cadd9
Like I'm made of glass
Em7 D
Like I'm made of paper
Em7 Cadd9
Go on and try to tear me down
G D
I will be rising from the ground
Em7 Cadd9
Like a skyscraper
G D
Like a skyscraper

(Verse 2)
As the smoke clears I awaken and untangle you from me
Would it make you feel better to watch me while I bleed?
All my windows still are broken but I'm standing on my feet
(chorus)
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
(Bridge)
Am7 Em7
Go run run run
Cadd9
I'm gonna stay right here
G
Watch you disappear Yeah
Am7 Em7
Go run run run
Cadd9
Yeah it's a long way down
G D
but I'm closer to the clouds up here
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Ohh
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper Em7
Cadd9 G
Like a skyscraper
D Em7
Like a skyscraper
Cadd9 G D
