Walls

New versions

Intro: [G#m] [B]
 
[G#m]Nothing wakes you up like wakin' up [B]alone
[G#m]And all that's left of us is a cupboard full of [B]clothes
[F#]The day you walked away and took the higher [E]ground
[F#]Was the day that I became the man that I am [C#]now [E]
 
But [B]these high [E]walls, they [G#m]came up [F#]short
Now [B]I stand [E]taller [G#m]than them [F#]all
[C#7]These high [G#m]walls never broke my [C#]soul
And I, I [E]watched them all come fallin' down
I watched them all come [C#m]fallin' down for [B]you, [E]for [B]you [E]
 
[G#m]Nothing makes you hurt like hurtin' who you [B]love (Hurtin' who you love)
[G#m]And no amount of words will ever be [B]enough (Will ever be enough)
[F#]I looked you in the eyes, saw that I was [E]lost (Saw that I was lost)
[F#]For every question why, you were my [C#]because (You were my [E]because)
 
But [B]these high walls [E], they [G#m]came up [F#]short
Now [B]I stand [E]taller [G#m]than them [F#]all
[C#7]These high [G#m]walls never broke my [C#]soul
And I, I [E]watched them all come fallin' down
I watched them all come [C#m]fallin' down for [B]you [E]
Fallin' down for [B]you [E]
 
So [E]this one is a [G#m]thank you for [F#]what you did to me
[E]Why is it that [G#m]thank-yous are so [F#]often bittersweet?
[E]I just hope I [G#m]see you one day, [D#7]and you say to [G#m]me, "Oh, [C#]oh"
 
But [B]these high [E]walls, they [G#m]came up [F#]short
Now [B]I stand [E]taller [G#m]than them [F#]all
[C#7]These high [G#m]walls never broke my [C#]soul
And I, I [E]watched them all come fallin' down
I watched them all come [C#m]fallin' down for [B]you [E]
Fallin' [B]down for you [E]
 
[G#m]Nothing wakes you up like wakin' up [B]alone
