Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][C][G][D]
[Em][C][G][D]
[Em]
I'm here [C]by my

[Verse 1]
[G]window
I am [D]waiting for your [Em]parade
I will [C]salute you
From [G]above the crowd
[D]As you make your way
[G]You won the battle baby
[Baug]You've won t[G]he war
I admit it now
I could not give any [C]more
My condition is [A]your reward
I am a [C]building
[D]Here without doors[Em]

[Verse 2]
[Em]
The altitude is [C]now
Getting to me
[G]As they applaud you
[D]On the boulevard
[Em]The whole valley looks like
[C]Someone's bod[G]y
All the people [D]look like
Little scars
[G]This day is tak[Baug]ing
[G]Forever
I will never say
Never say never [C]again
The flesh around me
Is [A]only pretend
Return [C]to sender
Every [D]letter
That is [Em]yours
I [A]am sure
That I am a [C]building
[D]Here without doors
[Em]

[Verse 3]
Fire blazing
[C]On the [G]overpass
Cattle grazing
[D]In field of dead grass
[Em]Last summer was [C]earthquake weath[G]er
By November
[D]This too should have passed
[G]I am not mov[Eb]ing
I [C]am landlocked
I am looking through
A [A]thousand windows
spread [C]across
A thousand [A]floors
There in a landfill
[C]Where Ede[D]n was bef[Em]ore
But not any[A]more
I am a [C]building
[D]Here without doors
[Em]

[Verse 4]
[G]
Did you see me waving to
you from [C]above
Things are looking [G]clear now
My eyes are wide enough to see
the way a sniper [C]does
Behind the barrel of a good gun
[Em][C]

[Verse 5]
[G]For[D][Em][C]
[G]wor[D]se [G]or better[Baug]
I surrender
[Em]It may not matter
But I'm [G]sadder than [C]you'll ever know
I am your in[A]ferno
Here all in [C]yellow
With em[D]bers blowing [Em]north[A]
No sense in [D]returning
[C]I'm not worrie[D]d any[Em] more[A]
I am a [C]building that is [D]here
without doors
[G][D#][Cm][C]

[Verse 6]
[A]
I am a [C]building
That is [D]here without doors
[Em]
