Verse
Bm
My mama told me
D
When I was younger
G
You better speak up
G
Don't be a number
Bm
My daddy told me
D
When there was thunder
G
Go be the lightning
G
Don't run for cover
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm A
Who's gonna help the helpless
F#m G
Sometimes we're all alone
Bm A
These days we're all just looking
F#m
For a place that we call home
[Chorus]
G
Now we can't climb over
Bm
And you can't go 'round
A
Build them up
Bm
We'll tear them down
G
Brick by brick
Bm
Gonna watch them fall
A
Build more bridges
Bm
And tear down walls
G
These walls
D
Are the mountains that we climb
A
These walls
Bm A
Are the great divide
G
Brick by brick
D
Gonna watch them fall
A
Build more bridges
Bm
Tear down walls
[Verse 2]
Bm
The space between us
D
Is getting wider
G
We need this bar to
G
Light the fire
Bm
Show me the promise
D
Give me some dealing
G
There's too much hurting
G
We need some healing
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm A
Who's gonna help the helpless
F#m G
Sometimes we're all alone
Bm A
These days we're one step closer
F#m G
To that place that we call home
[Chorus]
G
Now we can't climb over
Bm
And you can't go 'round
A
Build them up
Bm
We'll tear them down
G
Brick by brick
Bm
Gonna watch them fall
A
Build more bridges
Bm
And tear down walls
G
These walls
D
Are the mountains that we climb

These walls
Bm A
Are the great divide

Brick by brick
