Capo 4 or as you like
A pretty simple, easy to play version of "Buildings"
D A E D A E
He was a husband who drove his wife home drunk from the parties
D A E D A E
He was a husband who drove his wife home
D A E D A E
And in the car he would gently lean her head on the side door window
D A E D A E
And in the bathroom he would hold her hair back and hope, saying:
D A D A
Oh, they build buildings, oh, they build buildings,
D A F#m E
Oh, they build buildings, oh, they build buildings,
D A D A
Oh, they build buildings, oh, they build buildings,
D A E A
Oh, they build buildings so tall these days
D A E D A E
And in the morning she'd wake up and crouch recollections all day
D A E D A E
But she would always always wake up the next morning
D A E D A E
And he'd take one look at her and say, oh, oh, it's okay
D A E D A E
And her conscience would issue yet another last warning, saying;
D A D A
Oh, they build buildings, oh, they build buildings,
D A F#m E
Oh, they build buildings, oh, they build buildings,
D A D A
Oh, they build buildings, oh, they build buildings,
D A E A
Oh, they build buildings so tall these days
F#m D
And she would ask for time and she'd ask for time
E A
And she'd ask for time and she'd ask for time
F#m D E A
And she would beg for time and she'd beg for time and call it a gift
F#m D
And he would give her time and he'd give her time
E A
And he'd give her time and he'd give her time
F#m D
But time is not given and time is not taken
E A
It just sifts through its sieve
F#m D
But time is not given and time is not taken
E A
It just sifts through its sieve
D A E D A E
D A E D A E
Sift through its sieve, just sift through its sieve
D A E D A E D A E D A E
Oh, darling......sift through its sieve....just sift through its sieve
D A E
And it would be coffee and coffee and coffee
D A E
And coffee and coffee and coffee some more
D A E D A E
He'd go to work and she'd take a sick day and rot at the core
D A E
And by the time he came back, she'd scrub the bathrooms
D A E
And make them smell like pine
D A E
It would be almost as if nothing had happened
D A E D A E
And he'd give her time, oh, oh, and he'd give her time, saying:
D A D A
Oh, they build buildings, oh, they build buildings,
D A F#m E
Oh, they build buildings, oh, don't they build buildings,
D A D A
Oh, they build buildings, oh, they build buildings,
D A E A
Oh, they build buildings so tall these days
F#m D
And she would ask for time and she'd ask for time

And she'd ask for time and she'd beg for time
F#m D E A
And she would beg for time and she'd beg for time and call it a gift

And he'd give her time and he'd give her time

Oh, sift through its sieve, sift through its sieve
D A E D A E D A E D A E
Oh, ooh..........sift through its sieve....sift through its sieve
D A E D A E
He was a husband who drove, time, home, time, car, hope
D A E D A E
Core, cores a day, pour coffee, core warning, last warning
D A E D A
Was a husband, time, pine, scrub, scrub, bathroom, clean,
E D A E
Hair, bath, car, window, hope, time, gift
D A E
Don't they build buildings tall these days...
