Verse 1:

G# minorG#m      E MajorE     F#F#
  Hello old lovers of mine
    C#C#     E MajorE
  My little boy wishes
    BB     F#F#
  Of fortune's kisses
    C#C#     G# minorG#m
  Now dreams cast aside

      E MajorE   F#F#
  In the fading light
     C#C#    E MajorE
  Your crown of thorns
  BB     F#F#
  Becomes a halo
    C#C#    G# minorG#m
  Of branching horns
E MajorE F#F#      C#C#   E MajorE
  And yet so beautiful
BB F#F#

Chorus:
   C#C#      G# minorG#m
  I see you gently swaying
     E MajorE   F#F#
  In a sea of seesaws
          E MajorE
  Slumming in the shack
     BB     F#F#
  Tony built last year
           G# minorG#m
  I know you'll be holding
  E MajorE     F#F#
  Court with jackdaws
         E MajorE
  Crying when nobody
     BB     F#F#
  Ever sees your tears
     C#C#       G# minorG#m
  When no one sees your tears


E MajorE F#F# C#C# E MajorE BB F#F# C#C#
G# minorG#m E MajorE F#F# C#C# E MajorE BB F#F# C#C#

Verse 2:
G# minorG#m       E MajorE      F#F#
  What used to fly us from here
      C#C#     E MajorE
  To the stratosphere?
     BB       F#F#
  What became of our passion
       C#C#    G# minorG#m
  Is there no one who cares?
       E MajorE     F#F#
  Hear the soft minor key
       C#C#   E MajorE
  Of the one-time me
       BB  F#F#
  Still the acrobat
      C#C#     G# minorG#m
  With my heart on my sleeve
E MajorE F#F#      C#C#   E MajorE
  And it's so beautiful
BB F#F#


Chorus:
   C#C#      G# minorG#m
  I see you gently swaying
     E MajorE   F#F#
  In a sea of seesaws
          E MajorE
  Slumming in the shack
     BB     F#F#
  Tony built last year
          G# minorG#m
  I know you'll be holding
  E MajorE     F#F#
  Court with jackdaws
         E MajorE
  Crying when nobody
     BB     F#F#
  Ever sees your tears
     C#C#       G# minorG#m
  When no one sees your tears


Coda:
  C#C#
  Out back
  C#C#
  When the gates are closed
              F#F# (9 fret)
  Like a pitiful skeleton pose
  C#C#
  We held our first line of defense
  C#C#
  Saw our likeness
          F#F# (9 fret)
  And it made no sense
  C#C#
  Toy soldiers in the muck and dirt
             F#F# (9 fret)
  Salvation in your every word
  C#C#
  Lost in the fray of everyday


Chorus:
  C#C#      G# minorG#m
  I see you gently swaying
     E MajorE   F#F#
  In a sea of seesaws
          E MajorE
  Slumming in the shack
     BB     F#F#
  Tony built last year
          G# minorG#m
  I know you'll be holding
  E MajorE     F#F#
  Court with jackdaws
         E MajorE
  Crying when nobody
     BB     F#F#
  Ever sees your tears
     C#C#       G# minorG#m
  When no one sees your tears

Outro:
G# minorG#m       E MajorE     F#F#
  You're still fighting, I see
      C#C#     E MajorE
  Like a modern day Bruce Lee
   BB    F#F#      C#C#
