Verse 1

E G#m I built a keep to hold my anger in F# G#m I built a fortress for my keep E I built a castle around my fortress G#m D# D# G#m and I dug a mote that's two fathoms deep E G#m I built a city for my castle F# G#m I filled it up with my subjects E They are all paralyzed by a fear of the city G#m D# D# G#m and all the anger that it protects

Verse 2

E G#m I built a nation for my city F# G#m Made all the wild country tame E I made a world to hold my nation G#m D# D# where every living creature fears my name G#m E G#m I put up the skies and filled the oceans. F# G#m I built the universe as well. E E E I made a heaven that only I can get into G#m E and everybody else can go to hell (drop root F and hammer back on to build into chorus)

Chorus

D# G#m D# And so I burn like a firefly G#m D# I send my signal out to you G#m G#m G#m Into the blackness all around, only hoping D# G#m You can find some way to break through D# G#m You can find some way to break through G#m G#sus2 G#sus4

Verse 3

E G#m I drink my coffee in the morning F# G#m And listen to the radio E But all these comforts are just cold, hollow G#m D# D# G#m Reminders of everything I had that I let go. E G#m So I live this life of luxury F# G#m inside a universe I made E But at night I still sleep so fitfully G#m E behind an iron barricade (drop root F and hammer back on to build into chorus)
