  D            G    C            
 I sit at my table and wage war 
     D
on myself
  D   G               C          
 It seems like it's all...it's 
        D
all for nothing
  D           G         C
 I know the barricades, and
               D             D
 I know the mortar in the wall 
breaks
      G                  C     
 I recognize the weapons, I used 
            D
them well

  Em                  Bm
 This is my mistake. Let me make it 
good
  Em                     Bm       
 I raised the wall, and I will be 
                     G    A
the one to knock it down

 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...}

  Am            C          Am    
 Reach out for me and hold me 
                 C
tight.  Hold that memory
     Am           C           Am 
 Let my machine talk to me.  Let 
            A           G
my machine talk to me

 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
