[Intro]
(C,F,D,Am,G)
 
[Verse 1]
C
 Been the crawl of a mountain Been a link in a chain
 
 Been scolded for stealin' Been told to behave
F
 Been readin' the forecast Somethin's coming this way
 
 But it's takin' forever I'm too tired to maintain that
     C
 I'm slow
 
 Been a scratch on the surface Been a clog in the drain
 
 Been melodramatic Been sleepin' for days
F
 Been one in a million Been a million to one
 
 This is takin' forever Always seems to return that
     C
 I'm slow
 
[Chorus]
 F                        C
 All hands up, salute the Empire State
 F                           C
 Faith be true, you know the way
 D                         Am
 Ten feet tall in this: an empty space
         F
 Fallen walls all around
            G
 Destroyed again
            C
 Destroyed again
 
[Verse 2]
 
 Been diggin' to China, been a fish in the sea
 
 Been talkin' to Jesus But he's not talkin' to me
F
 Been readin' the forecast Something's coming this way
 
 But it's taken forever And I've already maintained that
     C
 I'm slow
 
[Chorus]
 F                        C
 All hands up, salute the Empire State
 F                            C
 Faith is true, she knows the way
 D                          Am
 Ten miles tall in this: an empty space
        F
 Fallen walls all around
              G
 We'll build again
          C ( continue for the rest of the song.)
 Rebuild again
 
[Verse 3]
 
 Been the crawl of a mountain
 
 Been a link in a chain
 
 Been scolded for stealin'
 
 Been carted away
