Strong winds and my   heads on     fire

Walk another day a    cross the high    wire
 C/G                                 D/A
I'm on a tightrope watch it as it swings

Like a countdown ticker on New Year's Eve

Verse 2:
       Gsus2          Em7             Em7*

 Gsus2                 Em7                              Em7*
 Counting all the reasons that we are broken and we lied

I'm on a tightrope watch it as it swings
 C/G                                            D/A
Heating up the metal, putting pressure on the springs

Pretty      candles on a    birthday        cake
 Gsus2                            Em7          Em7*
Covered in confetti with the     caffeine     shakes
 C/G                                   D/A
Fuck all that money, everything is trash
 C/G                                      D/A
Papers in the glove box, light it up and pass

Verse 4:
 Gsus2                        Em7        Em7*
Flip on the news we  watch it til we      sleep
          Gsus2                                     Em7
Ain't       nothing but static and the  panic and the feeling manic
 C/G                                     D/A
I'm on a tightrope watch it as it swings
 C/G                                              D/A
Heating up the metal, putting pressure on the springs
