Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Come let  us make bricks and burn  them hard
We'll  build a city  with a tower  for the world
 and climb  so we can reach  anything  we may propose
anything  at all
Build me up,  tear me down
 like a skyscraper
Build me up,  and tear  down
 These joining  walls
 So they  can't climb  at all
I  know why  you tore  it down that day
You  thought, that if  you got caught we'd  all go away
 Like a spoiled  little baby  who can't  come out and  play
You  had your  revenge
Build me up,  tear me down
 like a skyscraper
Build me up,  and tear  down
 These joining  walls
 So they  can't climb  at all
 - I've put  that means 4th fret power chord on D(4th) & G(3rd) strings (i'm
 not very good at this tabbing dealie as you can tell)
 Well madness  reigned and paradise fell
 When Babel's  walls came crashing down
 Now the echoes  roar for a story writ
 that was hardly  understood
 and never any good
Build me up,  tear me down
 like a skyscraper
Build me up,  and tear  down
 These joining  walls
 So they  can't climb  at all
 End with a descending scale that i'm sure that you can figure out. The notes are
.  I think anyway.
