G    Bm/F#  Em   C
tower to the skies
    G   Bm/F# Em  C
an academy of lies
      Bm      Em
and what goes up
        Am        D
surely must come down
        Bm              Em
and we felt the mighty blow-up
          Am           D
with the walls coming down
    Em                 C  D
or something like that

 G      Bm/F#  Em      C
most of us are quite pleased
 G   Bm/F#   Em    C
with the same old song
     Bm       Em          Am        D
and all of a sudden I'm relatively sane
       Bm           Em       Am         D
with everything to lose and nothing to gain
    G
or something like that

 Bm     Em         Bm           Am
man of wisdom and man of compromise
 Bm     G                C         D
man of weak flesh in an armored disguise
all fall down

G  Bm/F#  Em  C  x4

 C                      G           Em
"if it's right you can tell" echos Myron like a siren
       F                          G
with endurance like the liberty bell
        Em
and he tells you of the dreamers
           F
but he's cracked up like the road
          Em                              C
and he'd like to lift us up, but we're a very heavy load
           G   G/F#  Em                    C C/B C
and we're finally here and shit yeah it's cool
            G G/F# Em                     C C/B C
and shouldn't it be - or something like that
