[Intro]
DmDm C majorC A minorAm Bb majorBb DmDm
C majorC A minorAm Bb majorBb DmDm
[Verse 1]
C majorC A minorAm
It was the strangest night
Bb majorBb DmDm
The kinda scene I don't fit into
C majorC A minorAm
It didn't feel so right
Bb majorBb DmDm
But you came back 'round
C majorC A minorAm
Drifting across my sight
Bb majorBb DmDm
Some apparition of make believe
C majorC A minorAm Bb majorBb
I felt my chest go tight and I'm tumbling
[Chorus]
C majorC DmDm Bb majorBb
And you said hey baby hold my hand down on the wire
DmDm C majorC DmDm Bb majorBb
Oh I'm telling you the whole thing it's just a breaking of desire
DmDm C majorC DmDm Bb majorBb
You inevitably hold on cause you always do
DmDm C majorC
Gotta walk that wire
C majorC A minorAm Bb majorBb DmDm X2
[Verse 2]
C majorC A minorAm
Oh I'm talking in tongues cause I'm not made of steel
Bb majorBb DmDm
Somebody save me from myself
C majorC A minorAm Bb majorBb DmDm
I'm just a man alright and I'm fumbling
C majorC A minorAm
With all this faded light
Bb majorBb DmDm
Maybe the moment to make my move
C majorC A minorAm Bb majorBb
You hold your breath so tight as you're tumbling
[Chorus]
C majorC DmDm Bb majorBb
And I said hey baby hold my hand down on the wire
DmDm C majorC DmDm Bb majorBb
I've telling you the whole time it's just a breaking of desire
DmDm C majorC DmDm Bb majorBb
Now I promise you'll be brave too because you've earned that right
DmDm C majorC
Gotta walk that wire
[Solo]
C majorC A minorAm Bb majorBb DmDm X2
C majorC
Something in the air right
A minorAm Bb majorBb
You were steady as you walked away
DmDm C majorC
And we're never gonna know right
A minorAm Bb majorBb
But it's better than the other way
[Chorus]
C majorC DmDm Bb majorBb
And I said hey baby hold my hand down on the wire
DmDm C majorC DmDm Bb majorBb
See you never would've held on without the aching of desire
DmDm C majorC C majorC DmDm Bb majorBb DmDm
Know there's heaven in a folk song so just keep holding on because you're dancing on the wire
C majorC A minorAm Bb majorBb DmDm
C majorC A minorAm Bb majorBb
