Capo 4th fret
Standard (EADGBE)
The weight of my words
Are like feathers from a bird
My mouth, it moves
But you won't hear a thing
'Cause I've dug myself deep
I managed to fit both my hands and feet
All my little white lies
Smell like a big old bucket of bleach
In one ear and out your other
So lock and key
You won't open up for me
Chorus
So brick by brick
I am breaking through these walls
Oh, between you and me
I'm not giving up
I'm not giving up
And it feels like you're in China
And I am in Peru
Whenever I am sleeping next to you
We can hear the crickets singing
Oh, all throughout the night
Oh, boy can't you just get used
To something so right?
And sure I confess
I'm a mess, I'm a mess of mistakes
But please count to ten
Before you go and throw it all away
Chorus
So brick by brick
I am breaking through these walls
Oh, between you and me
I'm not giving up
I'm not giving up
'Cause if you give up
Then what am I supposed to do?
All our dreams
Never will come true without you
Chorus
So brick by brick
I am breaking through these walls
Oh, between you and me
I'm not giving up
I'm not giving up on us
