G

C or Cadd9
I am watching
Em D
cathching tear drops in my hands
G
only silence
C or Cadd9

Em D

Em

G D
theres nothing left of me

G C or Cadd9
you can take everything I have
Em D
you can break everything I am
G C or Cadd9
like Im made of glass
Em D
like Im made of paper
Em C or Cadd9
go on and try to tear me down
G D
I will be rising from the ground
Em C or Cadd9
like a skyscraper
G D
like a skyscraper

G

C or Cadd9

Em D
and untangle you from me

Cadd9 sounds 'better' with this song for me, but you can use either or. You can switch it up to add more tone into the song :)
