F             Eb   F7/A
 It used to be a sweet sensation

   Such cruel sport for your kicks
Dm7(5-)
    Such hard knocks on my heart
Db
  How long before the pain ends
Eb
  Tell me where living starts

   Ab
And lovers leap off burning buildings
Cm
  Waking up on a sky high wire
Dm7(5-)
    Desperation leaves us clinging

  On the edge of a house on fire

  Lovers leap off burning buildings

Fall in pieces from our faces
