Verse 1:

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

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

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


E F# C# E B F# C#
G#m E F# C# E B F# C#


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


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


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


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

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