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#
