On a Wire

[Intro] G#m  F#  B

G#m                         F#   
Awake at night, comfortably 
            B
restless in this bed
G#m                       F#     
We push rewind on conversations 
       B
in our heads

G#m                      F#      
The silence, the silence steals 
   B
the air

 B                        G#m
I've got you walking on a tight 
rope, honey
              F#              
You're trying hard to keep the 
  B
engine running
Continues after the ad
                            G#m
Afraid you'll cross over the line
         F#            B
A victim of this petty crime
                          G#m
I've got you walking on a tight 
rope, honey
             F#           B
I've got you walking on a wire

G#m                     F#       
A glass of wine, a medication for
      B
 the past
    G#m                       F#  
The hands of time can't turn 
                B
around, can't take it back
        G#m                  F#   
Oh, the silence, the silence 
      B
steals the air

 B                        G#m
I've got you walking on a tight 
rope, honey
              F#              
You're trying hard to keep the 
  B
engine running
                            G#m
Afraid you'll cross over the line
         F#            B
A victim of this petty crime
                          G#m
I've got you walking on a tight 
rope, honey
             F#           B
I've got you walking on a wire
