Verse 1:                                                                
F               
They talk of glass houses
Dm              
Well I built a crystal cathedral
F               
And I took my stones to the rooftop
Dm                      
To play target practice with people


Pre-Chorus 1:
Bb                      
I was too young to know the difference
F                       
I was just following orders
Bb                      
But when the glass shattered around me 
F                       
I learned a good lesson about my disorder


Chorus 1:
F                       
I thought I was happy
Dm
I said all the right things
Bb                                      F
I naively believed that my ship couldnt sink
C7
But it did


Verse 2:
F                               
You got hung up on the outside
Dm
You fake like youre living the good life
F
But death and decay on the inside
Dm
Just add pride and hate to your long list of crimes


Pre-Chorus 2:
Bb
Somewhere deep down you know the difference
F
Between love and following orders
Bb
And if the chorus I sing is offensive 
F
its proof that youve yet to address your disorder


Chorus 2:
F
You thought you were happy
Dm
You said all the right things
Bb                                      F
You naively believed that your ship couldnt sink
C7
But it did
F
You thought you were god and
Dm
Judge of all of your friends and
Bb                                      F
you naively believed that your ship couldnt sink
C7
But it did


Bridge:
F
Grace comes to those who wait
Dm
Comes to those who pray 
Bb
through tears
C7 
And theyll sing
C#? Dm?
And well all sing
F
La da da da, da da da da da da da
Dm
La da da da, da da da da da da da
Bb
Ooooh Waooooh, da da da da da da da
C7             C#       Dm
Ooooh Waooooh, la da da da da

Chorus 3:
F
We thought we were happy
Dm
We said all the right things
Bb                                      F
We naively believed that our ship couldnt sink
C7
But it did
F
we thought we were god and 
Dm
judge of all of our friends and 
Bb                                      F
we naively believed that our ship couldnt sink
C7          C#                  F Dm Bb C7
but it did, oh it did, oh it did
