Intro: F7M Am G C
Am
Awake at night
G C
Comfortably restless in this bed
Am
We push rewind
G C
On conversations in our heads
Am
The silence,
G C
The silence steals the air
C Am
I've got you walking on a tight rope, honey
G C
You're trying hard to keep the engine running
Am
Afraid you'll cross over the line
G C
A victim of this petty crime
C Am
I've got you walking on a tight rope, honey
G C
I've got you walking on a wire
( F7M Am G C )
Am
A glass of wine
G C
A medication for the past
Am
The hands of time
G C
Can't turn around, can't take it back
Am
Oh, the silence
G C
The silence steals the air
C Am
I've got you walking on a tight rope, honey
G C
You're trying hard to keep the engine running
Am
Afraid you'll cross over the line
G C
A victim of this petty crime
C Am
I've got you walking on a tight rope, honey
G C
I've got you walking on a wire
