Bbm     F#              C#
Climb this ladder if you can
Bbm     F#              C#
Lay waste the dreams and plans you planned
Bbm     F#              C#
And all you had to do was sing
Bbm     F#              C#
Think of the joy that you could bring
Bbm     C#              F#      C#
So I sang every rung at the top of my lungs
Bbm     F#              C#
But no one's ever listening

[CHORUS]
Bbm           F#       G#        C#
Cause I'm to young to call it a day
Bbm           F#        G#      C#
And I'm too old to make anymore mistakes
Bbm     C#              F#
And can I make something beautiful
   G#               Bbm
Just once before I die
F#      C#     G#     Bbm
Give me one chance to try

Bbm     F#      C#
O-o-ooo o-o-o-ooooo

V2
Bbm     F#              C#
I built my fortress with my hands
Bbm     F#              C#
It washed away just like the sand
Bbm     F#              C#
And all I had to do was sing
Bbm     F#              C#
Who knew it'd cost me everything
Bbm     C#              F#      C#
So I sang every note just to keep it afloat
Bbm     F#              C#
But no one's ever listening

[CHORUS]
Bbm           F#       G#        C#
Cause I'm to young to call it a day
Bbm           F#        G#      C#
And I'm too old to make anymore mistakes
Bbm     C#              F#
And can I make something beautiful
   G#               Bbm
Just once before I die
F#      C#     G#     Bbm
Give me one chance to try

Bbm     F#      C#
I'm singin' at the top of my lungs
Bbm     F#      C#
(O-o-ooo o-o-o-ooooo)

V3/Bridge:
Bbm             F#      C#
I could live my whole life long
Bbm             F#      C#
And not a soul would hear my song
Bbm             F#      C#
Well that wouldn't mean a thing
Bbm             F#      C#
Cause you will be my everything
Bbm     C#              F#      C#
And I'll sing every part with all of my heart
Bbm     F#              C#
Cause you are always listening

[A ST CHORUS]
Bbm             F#       G       C#
Cause I'm too young to call it a day
Bbm             F#        G        C#
And I'm too old to have nothing left to say
Bbm     C#              F#
And I will make you something beautiful
G#               Bbm
Each day until I die
F#      C#     G#     Bbm
Or at least I will try

Bbm     F#      C#
I'm singin' at the top of my lungs
(O-o-ooo o-o-o-ooooo)
