INTRO:
G G C C
VERSE:
G
They build wooden houses on frozen ponds
C
In the summertime when the water's gone
C
Diagonal lines in their rolled-out lawns
G
And the sage always smells so pretty
G
But nobody cares where the birds have gone
C
When the rain comes down on Babylon
C
The stone mason's phone rings all day long
G
And you gotta get back to the city
CHORUS:
C
I'll build my house up on this rock, baby
D
Every day with you
G
There's nothin' in that town I need
C
After everything we've been through
C
Me out in my garden
D
And you out on your walk
G
Is all the distance this poor girl can take
C
Without listenin' to you talk
D
I don't need their money, baby
D G G
Just you and me on the rock
C C
You and me on the rock
VERSE:
G
I built paper planes when I learned to fly
C
Like a 747 fallin' out of the sky
C
I folded 'em crooked, now I'm wonderin' why
G
I could always end up in the water
G
But nobody's askin' why she lookin' so thin
C
Why she laughin' too hard or why she drinkin' again
C
A fallen star, she's a paper plane
G
She was goin' down when you caught her
CHORUS:
C
I'll build my house up on this rock, baby
D
Every day with you
G
There's nothin' in that town I need
C
After everything we've been through
C
Me out in my garden
D
And you out on your walk
G
Is all the distance this poor girl can take
C
Without listenin' to you talk
D
I don't need their money, baby
D G G
Just you and me on the rock
BREAK:
Bb C
It's an earthquake, it's a harder wind
G D
It's a record breakin' tide and it is rollin' in
Bb C
It's a big sea, but it can't touch you and me
D
It's just not water for you
D G G
And what are you? ooh ooh ooooh oooh
G C G C
I don't need their money, baby
G G C C
Woo
CHORUS:
C
I'll build my house up on this rock, baby
D
Every day with you
G
There's nothin' in that town I need
C
After everything we've been through
C
Me out in my garden
D
And you out on your walk
G
Is all the distance this old girl can take
C
Without listenin' to you talk
D
I don't need their money, baby
D G G
Just you and me on the rock
OUTRO:
C
I don't need their money baby (I don't need their money, baby)
G
Just you and me on the rock (Just you and me on the rock)
C C G
You and me on the rock
