Chords

[Verse 1]
 C                 F/A       Am
Tore up like your baby blue jeans

        C/E
I was stepping through a fog

                          F/A          G/B
Under pressure, but I'm feeling weightless

       C             F/A         Am
Can't let heaven's pin-stripe shooting

            C/E
Leave you carrying a cross

                                F/A       G/B
Across the desert when you're feeling faithless

G      Am       F               G/B
After all, this haze is only temporary

G         Am      F
Laughter falls on deaf ears in the auditorium
[Chorus]
C   F/A        G/B    C
Stories stacked up so tall

                       F
And you don't talk me down

        Am          G/B
You're talking me through

C       F/A          G/B     C
Bright lights, our platform fire

                F
I'm a man on a wire

        Am           G/B
You're here for the view
[Verse 2]
  C              F/A        Am
Scattered in the mist, unmoving

              C/E
It's getting hard for you to watch

                             F/A         G/B
Me under pressure when I'm feeling weightless

C                  F/A          Am
Up where tensions aren't computing

                C/E
And where I've never fallen off

                                F/A
I guess I'd like to think your worry's wasted

F/C               Em
Worry's wasted on me

      Am         F/C            G/B     Em
After all, this haze may not be temporary

             Am
I heard you call

         F/A
From the back row of the auditorium
[Chorus]
C        F/A      G/B   C
Stories stacked up so tall

                       F
And you don't talk me down

         Am        G/B
You're talking me through

C       F/A          G/B     C
Bright lights, our platform fire

                F
I'm a man on a wire

        Am          G/B
You're here for the view

                F/C
I'm a man on a wire

        Am           G
You're here for the view
[Bridge]
    Am
So tell me what you think

                 G/B
When you see me there

     F/A
And tell me what you see

                   G
When the smoke is clear

C                  F/A       Am
Tore up like your baby blue jeans

        C/E
I was stepping through a fog
[Final Chorus]
C        F/A    G/B    C
Stories stacked up so tall

                        F
And you don't talk me down

         Am         G/B
You're talking me through
Yeah, just like you always do
C       F/A          G/B     C
Bright lights, our platform fire

                F
I'm a man on a wire

        Am           G/B
You're here for the view

                F/C
I'm a man on a wire

        Am           G/B
You're here for the view

C       F/A          G/B     C
Bright lights, our platform fire

                F
I'm a man on a wire

         Am          G
You're talking me through
