Verse 1:

Em
Out of mind

Don't move a muscle
     D
Stay out of sight
                G          C
I would cut you out my dear
Em          G
Modern life got you by the short and curlies
                       D
Suits you all just fine

I won't move a muscle


Chorus:

G C
  Hi, I'm a hell of a guy
                       Em
When I'm walking that tightrope
           G
Toeing the line

Won't you stay a while
C
Won't you stay a while
                      B  D
Won't you stay a while
C
I, I'm not ready to fly
                        Em
Swear I'll stick to the tightrope
            G
Take in the sights

I might stay a while
C
Won't you stay a while
                      B  D
Won't you stay a while


Verse 2:
Em
It don't take a genius

Don't move a muscle
    D
And you're no good at hearing it
                C
I can't see how you don't care
Em
I'm no good at hearing that

You're OK to speak my name
                    D
To start over brand new

I won't move a muscle


Chorus:
G C
  Hi, I'm a hell of a guy

When I'm walking that tightrope

Toeing the line

Won't you stay a while

Won't you stay a while
                      B  D
Won't you stay a while
C
I, I'm not ready to fly

Swear I'll stick to the tightrope
            G
Take in the sights

I might stay a while
C
Won't you stay a while
                      B  D
Won't you stay a while


Bridge:
Em
Don't look down

'Cause you're likely to fall
                                 C
With your foot in your mouth now

Wish the ground would swallow you whole
Em
Don't look down

As I'm waiting to fall
                             C
With both feet in my mouth I hope

That the ground just swallows me whole

Em

Running from me
C
All you gotta do, keep running from me
       G
Oh no, I don't worry

Em
Don't look down
       D
As I'm waiting to fall

With my feet in my mouth I hope
Am                     G             C
All you gotta do, keep running from me
       D
Always running


Chorus:
C                    Em
Hi, I'm walking that tightrope
           G
Toeing the line

Won't you stay a while
C
Won't you stay a while
                      B  D
Won't you stay a while
C
I, I'm not ready to fly
                        Em
Swear I'll stick to the tightrope
            G
Take in the sights

I might stay a while
C
Won't you stay a while
                      B  D
Won't you stay a while
