[Verse 1]
[Am]Built in copper and
in stainless steel,
Makes [E]my [Am]building shine bright.
Escalators [Em]filled [Am]with
plaster and [Em]tiles,
[Am]Make my city [Em]rise.[E][Em]
[Am]So I built it better, adding stone
Built it even [Em]better, once more
[Am]I'm an actor in the sun,
I'm a loser in the dark
[Em]But it's n[Am]ot gonna be long,
cause I know now that
Things come and go
Things come [Em]and[Am][Em][Am][Em][Am][Em][Am][Em]
[Am][Em][Am][Em][Am][Em][Am][Em][Am][Em][Am]
[Em][Am]
If I had only known
that [G]all this shine isn't gold
[Am]If I had only known
what's [G]good for me is not for old
If [F]I had only known
what [G]all our dreams are made of
[Am]If I[F] had only known
I [Am]wouldn't [G]have spent all of my days
Build[D]ing the city of mine
on mountains of [E]sand
[Am]Filled with carpets [Em]made
[Am]in Mojav[Em]e
[Am]Keeps my buildings [Em]warm[Am][G]
[Am]So I made it b[Em]etter
[Am]Adding foam
Made it even better, [Em]once [E]mor[Em]e
[E]I'm an [Am]actor in the sun
I'm a loser in the dark
So, story on and on
[Em]But I [E]know now that
things come and
Thing[Am]s come and I'd ma[Em]ke fin[Am]e, f[Em]ine, f[Am]ine,[Em][Am]
[Em]fine[Am], fine, fin[G]e, fin[Am]e, I'd only[Em] know[Am][Em][Am][Em][Am]
Take my hand, take my hand
had only known
That all that's shining isn't gold
If I had [Am]only known
What's [Am]good for me is not for all
[Am]If I had only kn[Am]own
What are [D]all dreams made [D]of
If [E]I had only known
Thanks
