E C#m G#m A
[Verse 1]

I got a yard
C#m
It’s full of wildflowers

'Cause I'm a wild child, yeah

I got my own style

Got a rooftop view that don’t stop
G#m A
Got my name on the deed in the mailbox
E C#m
I sleep easy in the bed I made
G#m A
And I dream bigger than I did before
E C#m
Took a while to feel this way
G#m A
Brick by brick, board by board
[Chorus]
E C#m G#m
I built this house
A E
From the foundation to the roof
It’s all me
C#m G#m
Baby, blood, sweat and the truth
A
Solid ground and weather proof
E C#m G#m
I had to tear the old one down
A E
Was living in somebody else's plans for me
C#m G#m
Locked in and I couldn’t find the key
A
Now it’s wall to wall, all me, yeah
E C#m G#m
I built this house
[Verse 2]
E C#m
No, I couldn’t ever be myself
G#m A
Was like tryna make a home out of a hotel
E
So I checked out
C#m
Left it all behind
G#m A
Had to start over, but that’s alright, 'cause
[Chorus]
E C#m G#m
I built this house
A E
From the foundation to the roof
It’s all me
C#m G#m
Baby, blood, sweat and the truth
A
Solid ground and weather proof
E C#m G#m
I had to tear the old one down
A E
Was living in somebody else's plans for me
C#m G#m
Locked in and I couldn’t find the key

Kitchen table big enough for all my friends

Peace of mind and wine in the fridge
A B
You either take me as I am
Or you can’t come in, 'cause
E C#m
I built this house, yeah
[Chorus]

From the foundation to the roof
It’s all me

Solid ground and weather proof

I had to tear the old one down
A E
Was living in somebody else's plans for me

Locked in and I couldn’t find the key
