Lead guitar plays bar chords in chorus
[Intro]
Dm C Am Bb Dm
C Am Bb Dm
[Verse 1]
C Am It was the strangest night Bb Dm The kinda scene I don't fit into C Am It didn't feel so right Bb Dm But you came back 'round C Am Drifting across my sight Bb Dm Some apparition of make believe C Am Bb I felt my chest go tight and I'm tumbling
[Chorus]
C Dm Bb And you said hey baby, hold my hand down on the wire Dm C Dm Bb Oh, I'm telling you the whole thing it's just a breaking of desire Dm C Dm Bb You inevitably hold on 'cause you always do Dm C Gotta walk that wire
C Am Bb Dm x2
[Verse 2]
C Am Oh I'm talking in tongues 'cause I'm not made of steel Bb Dm Somebody save me from myself C Am Bb Dm I'm just a man alright and I'm fumbling C Am With all this faded light Bb Dm Maybe the moment to make my move C Am Bb You hold your breath so tight as you're tumbling
[Chorus]
C Dm Bb And I said hey baby, hold my hand down on the wire Dm C Dm Bb I've been telling you the whole time it's just a breaking of desire Dm C Dm Bb Now I promise you'll be brave too because you've earned that right Dm C Gotta walk that wire
[Solo]

Something in the air right
Am Bb
You were steady as you walked away
Dm C
And we're never gonna know right
Am Bb
But it's better than the other way[Chorus]
C Dm Bb And I said hey baby, hold my hand down on the wire Dm C Dm Bb See you never would've held on without the aching of desire Dm C C Dm Bb Dm Know there's heaven in a folk song so just keep holding on because you're dancing on the wire
C Am Bb Dm
