Verse 1:

Chord diagramD MajorD
Chord diagramD MajorD
Let's build a boat
                                  Chord diagramG+G
So we can sleep right where we sail
                            Chord diagramE minorEm
You see a fish, I see a whale
                             Chord diagramA augmentedA
Underneath this painted indigo

Oh, where should we go next?
Chord diagramD MajorD
Let's build a boat
                             Chord diagramG+G
So we can say we saw the ocean
                                 Chord diagramE minorEm
From our bedroom's cotton curtains
                                 Chord diagramA augmentedA
While I was looking out the window

Oh, I know that you wanna build it too

Chord diagramE minorEm

Chorus:
Chord diagramE minorEm                                       Chord diagramG+G
Don't pretend that you're not looking
                                 Chord diagramD MajorD
For something more than growing up
                                       Chord diagramA augmentedA
Right now I should be writing flashcards

But I'm stuck on pastel skies and apple eyes that say too much
Chord diagramE minorEm                                         Chord diagramG+G
So won't you come and ride the waves, boy
                            Chord diagramD MajorD
We can go anywhere we please
                            Chord diagramA augmentedA
And then instead of revising

We could sail to the horizon
   -
And float out inside the sea

Chord diagramD MajorD
Verse 2:
Chord diagramD MajorD
Let's build a castle
                             Chord diagramG+G
So we can rule it as we choose
                                               Chord diagramE minorEm
And I'll spend days just simply talking to you
                                                      Chord diagramA augmentedA
And I won't worry if I don't know how to factorise

I'll blow the time off dandelions
Chord diagramD MajorD
Let's build a tree house
                              Chord diagramG+G
So we can hide up there forever
                                        Chord diagramE minorEm
We'll make a nest right out of feathers
                              Chord diagramA augmentedA
And I will never have to choose

Oh, you know that you wanna build it too


Chord diagramD MajorD

Chorus:
Chord diagramE minorEm                                          Chord diagramG+G
Don't pretend that you're not clueless

At what the hell you're gonna do
                                       Chord diagramD MajorD
Right now I should be drawing mind maps

But I'm stuck on fairy letters
Chord diagramA augmentedA
That make me think of you
Chord diagramE minorEm
So won't you come and climb to me, boy
                                     Chord diagramG+G
Coz we don't have to live like them
                          Chord diagramD MajorD
Instead of memorizing verbs

We could sail right round the world
Chord diagramA augmentedA                     Chord diagramD MajorD
And make it back again

Chord diagramD MajorD  Chord diagramG+G   Chord diagramE minorEm Chord diagramA augmentedA (x2)

Bridge:
Chord diagramD MajorD
Let's build a boat that's made for two
Chord diagramG+G
Oh, I know you want it just as much as me
        Chord diagramE minorEm
You're just afraid to give it all, in case you lose
 Chord diagramD MajorD
But I'm not scared of falling
Chord diagramG+G
Oh no, I'm scared of being boring
Chord diagramE minorEm
What if we never even try?

What if we never find out why?
  Chord diagramA augmentedA
What if we grow up without really growing down?


Verse 3:
Chord diagramD MajorD
So please, please my darling
                                               Chord diagramG+G
Just don't settle for what they want you to be

Coz you are extra ordinary already
                                                  Chord diagramE minorEm
And I know there's so much more inside your reach
 Chord diagramD MajorD
And I can't prove it's worth it
                                                            Chord diagramG+G
Coz it's not safe and I don't know where we'll end up

But hell, it's better than just waiting and taking
                         Chord diagramE minorEm
The path they build for us


Outro:
                                   Chord diagramD MajorD
Coz I don't think I could bear it
                                   Chord diagramG+G
If when we're old and faded peach
                            Chord diagramE minorEm
We can't tell each other stories of when we tried and flied
                                              Chord diagramA augmentedA
And made the jumps nobody thought we'd reach

Coz life is made for living
                                      Chord diagramD MajorD
So baby, oh, who knows what we'll be

Oh, but youth is meant for taking and for breaking
                                           Chord diagramG+G
And for building up the beautiful we'll be
