1. Skies are crying, I am watching
Em C
Catching teardrops in my hands
G D
Only silence, as its ending,
Em C
like we never had a chance.
G D
Do you have to make me feel
Em C
like there’s nothing left of me?
G D
R: You can take everything I have
Em C
You can break everything I am
G
Like I’m made of glass
D
Like I’m made of paper
Em C
Go on and try to tear me down
G D
I will be rising from the ground
Em C
Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper
2. As the smoke clears
I awaken and untangle you from me
Would it make you feel better
to watch me while I bleed
All my windows still are broken
but I’m standing on my feet
R: You can take everything I have...
Am Em C
*: Go run run run I’m gonna stay right here
Watch you disappear yeah
Am Em C
Go run run run yeah it’s a long way down
D
But I’m closer to the clouds up here
R: You can take everything I have...
Em C
... Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper (2x)
G*
Like a skyscraper
