Intro: E  Gb  Abm  E  Abm  Gb

Verse:
     E
The birds have left their trees
      Gb              Abm
The light pours onto me
       E
I can feel you lying there
            Abm    Gb
All on your own
        E
We got here the hard way
           Gb                Abm
All those words that we exchanged
E                            Abm   Gb
Is it any wonder things get brooooooke

Pre-Chorus:
       Dbm
'Cause in my heart and in my head
      E
I'll never take back the things I said,
    Abm
So high above
    Gb
"I feel it coming down", she said
Dbm
In my heart and in my head
 E
Tell my why this has to end
    B
Oh, no
     Gb
Oh, nooooooooo

Chorus:
E
I can't save us
Abm                Gb
My  Atlantis, we fall

We built this town on shaky ground
E
I can't save us
Abm               Gb
My Atlantis, oh, no
                             E   Gb   Abm   E   Abm   Gb
We build it up to pull it down

Verse:
     E
Now all the birds have fled
     Gb                   Abm
The hurt just leaves me scared
 E                           Abm   Gb
Losing everything I've ever known
      E
It's all become too much
       Gb                Abm
Maybe I'm not built for love
      E
If I knew that I could reach you,
         Abm   Gb
I would gooo-oooo

Pre-Chorus:
     Dbm
It's in my heart and in my head
     E
You can't take back the things you said,
    Abm
So high above
    Gb
"I feel it coming down", she said
Dbm
In my heart and in my head
 E
Tell my why this has to end
    B
Oh, no
     Gb
Oh, noooooooo

Chorus:
E
I can't save us
Abm                Gb
My  Atlantis, we fall

We built this town on shaky ground
E
I can't save us
Abm               Gb
My Atlantis, oh, no
                             E
We build it up to pull it down

        Abm
And we built it up
                   E
And we built it up
        Abm             Gb            E
And we built it up to pull it down

        Abm
And we built it up
                   E
And we built it up
        Abm             Gb
And we built it up to pull it down
