     D        G               A
The dust has finally settled down
		   D	     G		
The sun is shining on these pieces that are
  A
scattered all around
      D        G               A
This house was everything we knew
                       D       G             A
Its where we kept our love and every single memory
of me and you

Bm                  G
Every letter every note,
		      Bm                    A
Every dress you ever wore under your coat thrown
away

Chorus:
  D                    A
Brick by Brick we can build it from the floor
       Bm                             G
If we hold on to each other we'll be better than
before
      D                       A
And brick by brick we'll get back to yesterday
       F#m                             G
When I made your body shiver and when you
	         Bm A G
took my breath away
	            Bm A G
You took my breath away

The sky has made it back to blue
Everything that's left
Is telling us the worst of it is through
Home has never felt so right
There's nothing in the way
There's nothing in between us
Knowing where we're going is inside

Every letter that I wrote
Every dress you never wore under your coat
thrown away

Chorus:
Brick by brick
We can build it from the floor
If we hold on to each other
We'll be better than before
And brick by brick
We'll get back to yesterday
When I made your body shiver
And when you took my breath away

All the pictures that we've taken
And the songs that we have played
That have all kept track and followed back
the love that we have made
Now they're spread out on the surface
Where we can try to congregate
It's not too late to believe that we can
have it all again

Chorus:
Brick by brick
We can build it from the floor
If we hold on to each other
We'll be better than before
And brick by brick
We'll get back to yesterday
When I made your body shiver
And when you took my breath away
Took my breath away

Brick by brick
We'll get back to yesterday
When I made your body shiver
And when you took my breath away
You took my breath away
