Lyrics: [Intro] (x2) [Verse 1] (x2)
C I made a wreck out of my hand C I put it through the wall G1 I made a fist and not a plan G2 Call me a reckless wrecking ball C I throw my plates against the wall C And give it all I got G1 I aim to break not one, but all G2 I'm just a big old wrecking ball
[Chorus]
Am7 I am unruly in the stands F I am a rock on top of the sand C I am a fist amidst the hands Am7 And I break it just because I can
[Verse 2] (x2)
C It takes a dedicated hand C To put it through the wall G1 You got to want to break the hearts G2 Of all those pretty porcelain dolls C You got to want to be the drummer in the band C You got to want to be a battering ram G1 You got to see the artistry G2 In tearing the place apart with me, baby
[Chorus]
Am7 I am unruly in the stands F I am a rock on top of the sand C I am a fist amidst the hands Am7 And I break it just because I can
[Bridge]
G5 GmLet's B7break F#m6it D7Just bAm7ecause we can G5 GmDefaceB7 it F#m6 D7Just bAm7ecause we can G5Let's Gmbreak it Fjust Am7because Fjust Am7because
[turn around] just because [Chorus] (same chords, only finger picked)
Am7 I am unruly in the stands F I am a rock on top of the sand C I am a fist amidst the hands Am7 And I made a wreck out of my hand F I made a fist and not a plan C And I break it --> At this point go back to the down strokes X (palm mute) just because I can ! Am7 Because I can F Because I can C Because I can Am7 Because I can
[Outro] Play the same as the intro with extra flourish. ************************************ | / Slide up | \ Slide down ************************************
