GPicked you out my Dpocket
and you Emfell into the roadC  
you asked me iGf we'd make it betDter
asked me Emif we could grow oCld together
but Gyou don't mean a Dthing to me
so IEm'll walk by, Cquite happily
but Gnow I guess that Dyou, you've done as Emwell...C  
TooGk me to the Dbricks
You start to Embuild a wall
Keep pCeace intact
ProtecGt your fDamily
Keep tEmhem from harm
Live Cpeacefully, but they cameG  
crumbling Ddown
The sEmecond you left Ctown
And Gnow your famiDly are gone, are EmgoneC  
GUnderDstand me, Emtake me, fuClly
GUnderDground where I Emcannot be foundC  
GUnderDstand me, Emtake me, fuClly
GUnderDground where I Emcannot be Cfound
GAnd a letter thDat you wrote
That hEmad been stashed Cinside my wall
GTelling me aDll about your Emlife
It hCad been there for a quite a while
It sGkipped out certain cDhapters
That I tEmhought had really Cmattered
And now I Gfeel like DI missed EmoutC  
GOut, baby Dout, get Emout of Ctown
Baby Gout, baby Dout, get EmoutC  
Baby Gout, baby Dout, get Emout of Ctown
GBefore it catches Dup with you
And Emyou cannot Cwithstand
GBefore it catches Dup with you
And Emyou cannot Cwithstand
GBefore it catches Dup with you
And Emyou cannot Cwithstand

G D

Picked you out my pocket

Em C

and you fell into the road

G D

you asked me if we'd make it better

Em C

asked me if we could grow old together

G D

but you don't mean a thing to me

Em C

so I'll walk by, quite happily

G D Em C

but now I guess that you, you've done as well...

G D

Took me to the bricks

You start to build a wall

Keep peace intact

G D

Protect your family

Keep them from harm

C G

Live peacefully, but they came

crumbling down

Em C

The second you left town

G D Em C

And now your family are gone, are gone

G D Em C

Understand me, take me, fully

G D Em C

Underground where I cannot be found

G D Em C

Understand me, take me, fully

G D Em C

Underground where I cannot be found

G D

And a letter that you wrote

Em C

That had been stashed inside my wall

G D Em

Telling me all about your life

It had been there for a quite a while

G D

It skipped out certain chapters

Em C

That I thought had really mattered

G D Em C

And now I feel like I missed out

G D Em C

Out, baby out, get out of town

G D Em C

Baby out, baby out, get out

G D Em C

Baby out, baby out, get out of town

G D

Before it catches up with you

Em C

And you cannot withstand

G D

Before it catches up with you

Em C

And you cannot withstand

G D

Before it catches up with you

Em C

And you cannot withstand

G D Em C G
