Capo 1
The song follows the progression Am - G - D - D throughout the whole song. I only put the D where the chord
changes, but it takes up two measures.
Optionally, for a more full sound play D as D/F# by adding the thumb to the second fret on the low E string.
[Verse 1]
Am G
Came in like the breeze,
D
I felt it in my knees
Am G
Never will it leave
D
Each day it is retrieved
Am G
Seems like yesterday
D
Your eyes crept this way
Am G
Into my soul you stared
D
And bolt down every fear
[Chorus] x2
Am G
We built our own house, own house
D
With the hands over our hearts
Am G
And we swore on that day
D
That it will never fall apart
[Post-Chorus]
Am G
Will never fall apart-art-art
D
Will never fall apart-art-art
Am G
With the hands over our hearts
D
Will never fall apart-art-art
[Verse 2]
Am G
Wake up to the sun
D
Clouds always come undone
Am G
You give the light I need
D
Like water to the seed
Am G
Waiting in until
D
One to talk to be real
Am G
And prove wrong it seems
D
Our heart can truly mean
[Chorus] x2
Am G
We built our own house, own house
D
With the hands over our hearts
Am G
And we swore on that day
D
That it will never fall apart
[Post-Chorus]
Am G
Will never fall apart-art-art
D
Will never fall apart-art-art
Am G
With the hands over our hearts
D
Will never fall apart-art-art
[Bridge]
Am
Take it all, take it away
G
We'll still have the sun dying
D
And the love that is beating
'Till our lungs stop breathing
Am
Take it all, take it away
G
We'll still have our reaches,
D
No need for stitches
'Cause love mends the pain
Am G
Take it all, take it away (Love mends the pain)
D
Take it all, take it away (Love mends the pain)
Am G
Take it all, take it away (Love mends the pain)
D
Take it all, take it away
Take it all!
[Verse 3]
N.C. Am G
We built our own house, own house
D
With the hands over our hearts
Am G
And we swore on that day
D
That it will never fall apart
Am G
Will never fall apart-art-art
D
Will never fall apart-art-art
Am G
With the hands over our hearts
D
Will never fall apart-art-art
[Outro]
Am - G - D - D
Am - G - D
(Strum final D on the beat for 5 beats.)
