| Capo 2
C F x 4
Am F C
I know that time has numbered my days
Am F C
and I'll go along with everything you say
C F x 4
Am F C
But I ride home laughing look at me now
Am F C
and the walls of town they come crumbling down
C F x 4
Am F C
And my ears here the call of my unborn sons
Am F C
and I know the choices cover all I've done
C F x 4
Am F C
But I'll explain it all to the watchman's son
Am F C
I never lived a year better spent and loved
C F x 4
Am F
Because I know my weakness
C Am
Know my voice
F C G
And I'll believe in grace and choice
Am F C Am
And I know perhaps my heart is vast
F C G
But I'll be born without a mask woo
C F x 4
Am F C
Like the city that nursed my greed and my pride
Am F C
I stretch my arms into the sky
C F x 4
Am F C
I cry Babel, Babel look at me now
Am F C
But the walls of my town they come crumbling down
C F x 4
Am F C
You ask where will we stand in the winds that will howl
Am F C
As all we see will slip into the cloud
C F x 4
Am F C
So come down from your mountain and stand where we've been
Am F C
You know are breath is weak and our body thin
C F x 4
Am F C G
Press my nose up to the glass around your heart
Am F C G
I should've known I was weaker from the start
Am F C G Am
You'll build your walls and I'll play my bloody part
G C
To tear, to tear them down
Am F C
Well I'm going to tear, tear them down
Am F
Because I know my weakness
C Am
Know my voice
F C G
And I'll believe in grace and choice
Am F C Am
And I know perhaps my heart is vast
F C G
But I'll be born without a mask
