Standard (EADGBE)

We built a tall, tall tower

Towards the sun, towards the sun

Took some words and built a wall

And called it love, called it love

Somewhere in all the talking, the meaning faded out

Oh, I wonder when did it all stop making sense?

I don't understand

I remember, we were so sure, so innocent

Oh, but that was then

Can we ever go back again?

Can we ever go back?

You're speaking a dead, dead language

You don't sound like yourself

I hope it's just lost in translation

So why don't you show, don't try to tell

Brick by brick, we started crumbling

Will I find you when it falls?

Oh, I wonder when did it all stop making sense?

I don't understand

I remember, we were so sure, so innocent

Oh, but that was then

Can we ever go back?

Don't hold your breath

Look around

Try to add it up, pin it down

But you can't

Oh, I wonder when did it all stop making sense?

I don't understand

I remember, we were so sure, so innocent

Oh, but that was then

Can we ever go back again?

Can we ever go back?
