Intro

Verse

 I built a man made out of bricks

 and lived inside his chest

 I beat my hands against the walls

 To make a heart beat in his breast

 I smashed my fist against his ribs

 to suck the air inside

 and swing by swing and blow by blow

 I brought that man to life (hold G for one more bar)

Intro again

omit the Dm and G though)

Verse ii

(arpeggiated)

 I built a man and cut his skin

 and lived inside his heart

 I pumped it with my fingertips

 and loved it from the start

 And with every beat I gave him

 a heart beat of my own

 and then I filled his veins

 with the blood I had

 Til his blo-oh-oh-oh-od (x 3)

 Was my oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohn

 Oh, I'd build you up,

( )

but we're not made of the same stuff,

 And even though I knocked you down,

( )

you're so much stronger than me (repeat this time with mute)

 Well, I would build you up,

 but we're not made of the same stuff,

 And even though I knocked you down,

 you're so much stronger

Than MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~
