[Intro]

La La
G
La La
[Chorus]
G
Building a house so we can fall at the first brick
G C
If the cement don't stick, but I've been told
D G
That it only gets harder from there
[Verse 1]
G
I said now that I'm young I just do what I do
G
I don't second guess too much
G
Shake my ties and I'm not that wise
G
I'm not a grown up as such
C
All of the talk about a ring and a baby
C
Gets me every time
D
Am I big enough, strong enough
D
To walk along your line
[Chorus]
G
Building a house so we can fall at the first brick
G C
If the cement don't stick, but I've been told
D G
That it only gets harder from there
[Verse 2]
G
You say I'm always on the hustle
G
That I don't know just how good I get it
G
And that there's plenty of men out there with money and muscle
G
Look at these hips, baby don't you forget them
C
But the curves will go, the money we'll spend
C
What we're left with in the end
D
Oh, she's wanting half and she's staking her claim
D
I'm sayin' who's that bitch with my second name
[Chorus]
G
Building a house so we can fall at the first brick
G C
If the cement don't stick, but I've been told
D G
That it only gets harder from there
[Bridge]
C
Yeah baby, truth be told
G
I'm only trying to keep our heads above the water
C
Responsibility, eternal monogamy
D G
I'm not a father, child, are you a mother, are you
G
Oh, my pride and joy
C D G
Yeah you, you are my pride and joy
[Chorus]
G
Building a house so we can fall at the first brick
G C
If the cement don't stick, but I've been told
D G
That it only gets harder from there
