[Verse]
CJust because you got it Em
You don't have to flaunt it
With an Fendless stream ofC famousG men
CPretty as a portrait Em
Looked like Mamah Borthwick
On that FShining Brow of CTaliGesFin
[Chorus]
FSomeone might try and Cburn it down
EmSo you'll have to put the Ffire Gout
CFortunes Gspent Cbut that's irrFelevant to Ambuild Emsomething that's sFacred tGill the eCnd
[Interlude]
(Repeat riff x1)
[Verse]
CIt cost twenty dollarsEm to visit Fallingwater
It's the Fperfect house where Cno one Glives
CMaybe someone once didEm but they got evicted by a Fbusload full of Cgreedy GtourFists
[Chorus]
FAnd it would take aC time machine
EmTo fulfill all of my FfantaGsies
C'Cause a hidden GdreamC can be embFarrassing
And the oAmnly Emthing that's sFacred tGill the eCnd
[Interlude]
(Repeat riff x1)
[Verse]
CEvery time I tempt fate
EmThere's a major earthquake
Heard the Fpeople scream as the Cceiling Gfell
CEvery building damaged
EmOnly one left standing
It was FFrank Lloyd Wright's ImpCeriGal HoFtel
[Chorus]
FA ruminationC in my mind
EmWinding like the ramp at the FGuggenGheim
CI'm not contGent C
But I'm feeling Fhesitant to Ambuild Emsomething that's sFacred tGill the eCnd
[Outro]
(Repeat riff x2)
