[Intro]
     G      Emx2
[Verse 1]
It was Gsomething he said
Something he said
His Emwords built a wall
A wall inside my head
Just Cone little thing
Didn't mean that much to him
But it keeps Dbuilding and building and building
This wall in my Ghead
This wall in my Emhead
Just Gone tiny thought
Started out so small
But the Emthought made a brick
The bricks made a wall
And the Cwall keeps me down
And the wall trips me up
And it keeps Dbuilding and building and building
This wall in my Ghead
This wall in my Emhead
[Pre-Chorus]
And Bmhere I stand with my Cfeet stuck to the Dfloor
BmAs I shout down the Cstreet
Screaming for Dmore
[Chorus]
Over the Gwall
Over the Emwall
I see my Cfuture standing Dtall
Over the Gwall
Over the Emwall
I can beClieve I'd have it Dall
So I keep Gclimbing and climbing and Emclimbing
This wall in my Chead, head, Dhead
I keep on Gclimbing and climbing and Emclimbing
This wall in my Chead, head, Dhead
This wall in my Ghead
This wall in my Emhead
[Verse 2]
It was Gsomething he said
Just one little thing
The Emthought left a scar
The words left a sting
Those Cwords are the walls 
That still hold me in
And they keep Dbuilding and building and building and building
[Pre-Chorus]
And Bmsomeday
I'll find my own Cfeet
There’s shoes to be Dfilled
But Bmthis wall
Is harder to Cbeat when its one you helped Dbuild
[Chorus]
Over the Gwall
Over the Emwall
I see my Cfuture standing Dtall
Over the Gwall
Over the Emwall
I can Cbelieve I'd have it Dall
So I keep Gclimbing and climbing and Emclimbing
This wall in my Chead, head, Dhead
I keep on Gclimbing and climbing and Emclimbing
This wall in my Chead, head, Dhead
[Outro]
I keep on climbiGng and climbing and Emclimbing and climbing and
Cclimbing and climbing and Dclimbing and climbing and
GHand over hand over Embrick over hand over
Chand over hand over Dbrick over hand over
GClimbing climbing Emclimbing
This wall in my CheadD  
This wall in my GheadEm  
This wall in my CheadD  
This wall in my GheadEm  
    C      D      G       Em      C    DThis wall in my Ghead

[Intro]

G Em

[Verse 1]

It was something he said

Something he said

His words built a wall

A wall inside my head

Just one little thing

Didn't mean that much to him

But it keeps building and building and building

This wall in my head

Just one tiny thought

Started out so small

But the thought made a brick

The bricks made a wall

And the wall keeps me down

And the wall trips me up

And it keeps building and building and building

This wall in my head

[Pre-Chorus]

Bm C D

And here I stand with my feet stuck to the floor

Bm C

As I shout down the street

Screaming for more

[Chorus]

Over the wall

C D

I see my future standing tall

Over the wall

C D

I can believe I'd have it all

G Em

So I keep climbing and climbing and climbing

C D

This wall in my head, head, head

G Em

I keep on climbing and climbing and climbing

C D

This wall in my head, head, head

This wall in my head

[Verse 2]

It was something he said

Just one little thing

The thought left a scar

The words left a sting

Those words are the walls

That still hold me in

And they keep building and building and building and building

[Pre-Chorus]

And someday

I'll find my own feet

There’s shoes to be filled

But this wall

C D

Is harder to beat when its one you helped build

[Chorus]

Over the wall

C D

I see my future standing tall

Over the wall

C D

I can believe I'd have it all

G Em

So I keep climbing and climbing and climbing

C D

This wall in my head, head, head

G Em

I keep on climbing and climbing and climbing

C D

This wall in my head, head, head

[Outro]

G Em

I keep on climbing and climbing and climbing and climbing and

C D

climbing and climbing and climbing and climbing and

G Em

Hand over hand over brick over hand over

C D

hand over hand over brick over hand over

G Em

Climbing climbing climbing

C D

This wall in my head

G Em

This wall in my head

C D

This wall in my head

G Em

This wall in my head

C D G Em C D G

This wall in my head
