Verse 1
I’m gonna die in these four walls
I’ve had enough and I’ve tried it all
I’ll watch the day break and I’ll see the night fall
In these four walls
(walk down to )
Verse 2
Show me trouble I’ll take him down
I drew a line on this patch of ground
Everything’s safe and everything’s sound
In these four walls
(walk up from G to A# )

Chorus
Up on the rooftop I can remember
Borders I had to break
Now I can see I had this life
To make to make
Verse 3
I’m gonna miss your southern drawl
A baby’s footsteps in an empty hall
And every little thing I can ever recall
In these four walls these four walls
(walk down to )

(walk up from G to A# )
Chorus
Up on the rooftop You feel like you’re flying
Thinking your heart could break
Oh can’t you see we had this love
To make to make
(repeat Verse 1)
I’m gonna die in these four walls
I’ve had enough and I’ve tried it all
I’ll watch the day break and I’ll see the night fall
In these four walls
these four walls
these four walls
