Building A Home

F#                             
We live on a lake, and sometimes 
   A#m
there are waves;
          B                       
I guess that explains why we've 
A#m        C#
been led astray.

F#                                
Because if the west is what we 
                          A#m
need, you can bet we'll be heading 
east.
          B                 A#m   
We're so easily distracted by the 
            C#
slightest breeze.
              F#                   
When there's too many roads, and 
       A#m
far too many shows;
    B                           
all these empty highs become too 
       A#m   C#
many lows.

    B                      A#m     
We walk through crowded streets to 
D#m       C#
be by ourselves;
    E          C#
screaming for help...

F#       A#m
I won't wait

B             F#
to hear them say,
B           F#        E     C#
"You were wrong all along."
F#           A#m
We've been drowning,
B               F#
and we've been doubting;
B                F#       E      
I think it's time for a change...

       F#                          
We're building a home, but it's not
  A#m
 made of stone;
               B            F#    
a place where we can go to find a 
         C#
lasting hope.
          F#                       
With our anxious pace, life's like 
    A#m
an endless chase;
           B                       
where we don't know who's after us,
            F#     C#
 but we run anyways...

    B                      A#m     
We walk through crowded streets to 
D#m       C#
be by ourselves;
    E          C#
screaming for help...

F#       A#m
I won't wait
B             F#
to hear them say,
B           F#        E     C#
"You were wrong all along."
F#           A#m
We've been drowning,
B               F#
and we've been doubting;

F#    C#   D#m     B
We almost left without saying 
goodbye.
