D5    D7sus    Em7    Am(4) - 
[intro]
G/D - D5


D5            D7sus            
Laughing in a crown of jewels, 
Em7             Am4 - G/D - D5
numbness from a scepter's wound
D5               D7sus           
Toss and turn, I spin and learn, 
Em7             Am4-G/D - D5
catch yourself before you burn
D5                  D7sus     
Jokers dance before the king, 
Em7                Am4-G/D-D5
jangling beads, a silver ring
D5                    D7sus      
Close your eyes and bare the 
   Em7          Am4-G/D-D5
sound, jumping up, falling down

A                  C(9)          
Falling, falling, falling, 
   D        Am(4) - G/D - D5
falling down
A                     C(9)       
Look yourself in the eye before 
     D        Am(4) - G/D - D5
you drown

Royal rebels discover you; trust? 
you turn, there is no truth
And circle, circle, why are you 
scared, why a smile instead of 
tears?
I'm gulping smoke, I fade away, 
figures floating down to lay
Meet the joker and the thief, the 
king and queen, but no relief

Falling, falling, falling, falling 
down
Look yourself in the eye before you 
drown
Falling, falling, falling, Falling 
down
(The king is in his counting house, 
counting out his money)
Look yourself in the eye before you 
drown
(The queen is in her parlor eating 
bread and honey)

[Guitar solo: same chords as verse]

I cross myself before I die, and the
 leaping man, he asked me why
Well your rhythm is off, I reply, 
Now you must dance the dance that 
you imply

     D5                       
Your actions will follow you 
D7sus                  Em7       
full circle round, your actions 
           D5
will follow...
     D5                       
Your actions will follow you 
D7sus                  Em7       
full circle round, your actions 
           D5
will follow...
     D5                       
Your actions will follow you 
D7sus                  Em7       
full circle round, your actions 
           D5
will follow...
     D5                       
Your actions will follow you 
D7sus                 Em7
full circle round, the higher the 
leap
                         D5     
I said, the harder the ground
Am(4)-G/D-D5  Am(4)-G/D-D5
