LIFEHOUSE
WRECKING BALL
from Smoke&Mirrors album
CAPO 1
CF
  2x 
C
I'm alone
                   F
Wondering in your space
               C
Waiting for a sign of life
                   F
Looking so out of place
                 C
Then you whisper to me
                   F
It doesn't matter what you say
G
I feel the weight against the wind
                               F
The demolition of me caving in Ohhh
CHORUS:
Am                      G                F
And I'm always swinging on this wrecking ball
Am                        G                   F
While you're building up and breaking down my wall
G
You push and pull
You give and take
                                       Am   F
And through it all I gravitate to you
C                                  F
I'm a fool, a mechanical tool for you
                   C                               F
You've got all the switches and levers to blow my cool
                      C
And when you know I'm broken
                       F
That's when you come shining through
G
You set me up to knock me down
                                          F
And leave my shattered pieces on the ground
CHORUS:
Am                      G                 F
And I'm always swinging on this wrecking ball
Am                        G                   F
While you're building up and breaking down my wall
G
You push and pull
You give and take
                                       C
And through it all I gravitate to you
C F Am F

G
You set me up to knock me down

CHORUS:
Am                      G                 F
And I'm always swinging on this wrecking ball
Am                       G                    F
While you're building up and breaking down my wall

You push and pull
