[Intro]

[Verse 1]
C F F C
How do you say goodbye? Will anybody teach me?
C Am F C
Cause the holy water’s gone dry The cathedral is empty
[Chorus]
Am F C G F
If I could build a tower to heaven I would
Am C F G Am
Maybe build a ladder past the sky
Am F F Am
Look God in the eyes Try to change his mind
Am F F C
Maybe he would let you Come back with me tonight
[Verse 2]
C F F C
There’s pages on the floor But the words are erasing
C Am F F C
I can barely hear the choir singing And the melody is fading
[Chorus]
Am F C G F
If I could build a tower to heaven I would
Am C F G Am
Maybe build a ladder past the sky
Am F F Am
Look God in the eyes Try to change his mind
Am F F C
Maybe he would let you Come back with me tonight
[Bridge]
F C
What’s done is done Amen
F C G
What’s done is done Amen Amen
[Chorus]
Am F C G F
If I could build a tower to heaven I would
Am C F G Am
Maybe build a ladder past the sky
Am F F Am
Look God in the eyes Try to change his mind
Am F F C
Maybe he would let you Come back with me tonight
F C
Come back with me
F C
Come back to me
F C
Come back to me
[Outro]
C F F C
How do you say goodbye? Will anybody teach me?
