"Skyscraper" - Kerli
 
It's basically the same as the original version by Demi Lovato. The version on here by her
had some misplaced chords so I thought I'd just clean it up and make a chord version for Kerli
(who, by the way, co-wrote the song) because I like her voice much better than Demi's. The only
real difference is that the intro's played twice in Kerli's version.
 
Intro: F  F  Dm  G  (2x)
 
Verse:
          F            F
Skies are crying, I am watching
         Dm               G
Catching tear drops in my hands
     F               F
Only silence as it's ending
        Dm          G
Like we never had a chance
 
Prechorus:
       Dm              F
Do you have to make me feel like
        F               G
There's nothing left of me?
 
Chorus:
             F            F
You can take everything I have
              Dm           G
You can break everything I am
                 F        F
Like I'm made of glass
                 Dm       G
Like I'm made of paper
          Dm             F
Go on and try to tear me down
          F               G
I will be rising from the ground
          Dm       F
Like a skyscraper
          F        G
Like a skyscraper
 
Verse:
       F                F
As the smoke clears, I awaken
      Dm              G
And untangle you from me
         F             Dm
Would it make you feel better
   Dm               G
To watch me while I bleed?
 
Prechorus:
       Dm                F
All my windows still are broken
        F              G
But I'm standing on my feet
 
Chorus:
             F            F
You can take everything I have
              Dm           G
You can break everything I am
                 F        F
Like I'm made of glass
                 Dm       G
Like I'm made of paper
          Dm             F
Go on and try to tear me down
          F               G
I will be rising from the ground
          Dm       F
Like a skyscraper
          F        G
Like a skyscraper
 
Bridge:
Dm             Dm
  Go run, run, run
                     F
I'm gonna stay right here,
               F
Watch you disappear
Dm             Dm
  Go run, run, run
                      F
Yeah, it's a long way down
         F                       G
But I am closer to the clouds up here
 
Chorus:
             F            F
You can take everything I have
              Dm           G
You can break everything I am
                 F        F
Like I'm made of glass
                 Dm       G
Like I'm made of paper
          Dm             F
Go on and try to tear me down
          F               G
I will be rising from the ground
          Dm       F
Like a skyscraper
          F        G
Like a skyscraper
          Dm       F
Like a skyscraper
          F        G
Like a skyscraper
                  Dm  F  F  G
Like a skyscraper
 
 
classicNote: It sounds really cool if you have a delay pedal set to the beat of the song.
I play it like that on my 12-string and it sounds guitargasmic.
