VERSE:
  Chord diagramG+G
  We sell 'em missiles, We sell 'em tanks
  Chord diagramC majorC
  We give 'em credit, You can call the bank

  Chord diagramG+G
  It's just a business, You can pay us in crude
  Chord diagramC majorC
  You love these toys, just go play out your feuds

  Chord diagramG+G
  Got no pride, don't know whose boots to lick
  Chord diagramC majorC
  We act so greedy, makes me sick sick sick

BREAK:
  (PLAY INTRO OVER THESE WORDS)
  So get up, stand up, out of my way
  I want to talk to the boss right away

  (PLAY INTRO OVER THESE WORDS)
  Get up, stand up, whose gonna pay
  I want to talk to the man right away

CHORUS:
  Chord diagramG+G
  We walk the highwire
                Chord diagramD MajorD
  Sending the men up to the front line
                 Chord diagramC majorC
  Hoping they don't catch the hell fire
            Chord diagramD MajorD
  With hot guns and cold, cold nights

         Chord diagramG+G
  We walk the highwire
                Chord diagramD MajorD
  Sending the men up to the front line
                Chord diagramC majorC
  And tell 'em to hotbed the sunshine
            Chord diagramD MajorD
  With hot guns and cold, cold nights

VERSE:
  Our lives are threatened, our jobs at risk
  Sometimes dictators need a slap on the wrist

  Another Munich we just can't afford
  We're gonna send in the eighty-second airborne

BREAK:
  Get up, stand up, who's gonna pay
  I wanna talk to the boss right away
  Get up, stand up, outta my way
  I wanna talk to the man right away

CHORUS:
  We walk the highwire
  Putting the world out on a deadline
  And hoping they don't catch the shellfire
  With hot guns and cold, cold nights

  We walk the highwire
  Putting the world out on a deadline
  Catching the bite on primetime
  With hot guns and cold, cold nights

BREAK:
  Get up! Stand up!
  Dealer! Stealer!
  Hey!

CHORUS:
  We walk the highwire
  We send all our men into the front lines
  We're hoping that we backed the right side
  With hot guns and cold, cold nights

  We walk the highwire
  We send all the men up to the front lines
  And hoping they don't catch the hellfire
  With hot guns and cold cold, cold, cold,
  cold nights

  We walk the highwire
  We walk the highwire
  With hot guns and cold, cold, cold nights

  With hot guns and cold, cold nights
