E F#The birds have left their trees
G#mThe light bores onto me
EI can feel you lying there
G#m F#All on your own
E F#We got here the hard way
G#mAll those words that we exchanged
E G#m F#Is it any wonder things get da - ark
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m'Cause in my heart and in my head
EI never take back the things I've said,
G#mSo high above
F#"I feel it coming down", she said
C#mIn my heart and in my head
ETell me why this has to end
BOh, no
F#Oh, nooooooooo
[Chorus]
E F#I can't save us
G#m F#My Atlantis, we fall
We built this town on shaky ground
E F#I can't save us
G#m F#My Atlantis, oh, no
E F# G#m F# E G#m F#We build it up to pull it down
[Verse 2]
E F#Now all the birds have fled
G#mThe hurt just leaves me scared
E G#m F#Losing everything I've ever known
E F#It's all become too much
G#mMaybe I'm not built for love
EIf I knew that I could reach you,
G#m F#I would Go - oo
[Pre-Chorus]
C#mIt's in my heart and in my head
EYou can't take back the things you said,
G#mSo high above
F#"I feel it coming down", she said
C#mIn my heart and in my head
ETell me why this has to end
BOh, no
F#Oh, noooooooo
[Chorus]
E F#I can't save us
G#m F#My Atlantis, we fall
We built this town on shaky ground
E F#I can't save us
G#m F#My Atlantis, oh, no
EWe build it up to pull it down
G#mAnd we build it up
EAnd we build it up
G#m F# EAnd we build it up to pull it down
G#mAnd we build it up
EAnd we build it up
G#m F#And we build it up to pull it down
[Chorus]
E F#I can't save us
G#m F#My Atlantis, we fall
We built this town on shaky ground
E F#I can't save us
G#m F#My Atlantis, oh, no
E F# G#m F# E G#m F# EWe build it up to pull it down
