Tear It All Down

B
Pressed up against this shop front
E
Drawing faces there in Crayon
B   F#
It's a long way from the pocket full
 of rain
B
And you have walked the streets for 
hours
E
With your loose change and your 
flowers
B   F#
And now I'll learn your body like a 
nursery rhyme in braille
B   E
It's a simple explanation for the 
paths that you have taken
B   F
You have stumbled from the cradle to
 a prayer
Continues after the ad

B   E
But in this darkened room we have 
got heart enough to burn
B   F#
We can dance away the hours we can 
leave our questions there
B   G   A   B   G   A
And we'll tear it all down
B  E
So welcome to our winning streak no 
broken bones or old deceits
B  F#
Its you and me versus this little 
town
B  E
We're the rag dolls in the gutter 
we're the curses that they'll mutter
B  F#
And you will still be trying on my 
heart just like a crown
B   G   A   B   G   A   B   G   A
B  G  A
And we'll tear it all down
D  C#m  E  F#
I know your tactics all the practice
 this bravery took
D  C#m  E  F#
And the flags are flying you're 
trying out a different look
B
E
So there's a candle in the window 
I've got a lousy history of 
tomorrows
B  F#
So I'll spill the beans in every 
little sound
B  E
You are the creaking of the door you
 are the Chorus of applause
B  F#
You are wishbones and the axis that 
these songs will spin around
