[Verse 1]
B9
Caught up in a whirlwind, can't catch my breathKnee deep in hot water, broke out in cold sweat
Can't catch a turtle, in this rat race
G#m7 E9 E D B7 A G E E D B7 A G E Feels like I'm losing time, at a breakneck pace
[Verse 2]
B9
Afraid of my own shadow, in the face of graceHeart full of darkness, spotlight on my face
There was love all around me, but I was looking for revenge
G#m7 E9 E D B E D B Thank God it never found me, would have been the end
[Chorus]
E9 B9 Walkin' the tightrope, steppin on my friends E9 B9 Walkin' the tightrope, was a shame and a sin E9 B9 Walkin' the tightrope, between wrong and right A E9 B9 Walkin' the tightrope, both day and night

B9
Lookin' back in front of me, in the mirror's grinThrough eyes of love I see, I'm really lookin at a friend
We've all had our problems, that's the way life is
G#m7 E9 E D B E D B My heart goes out to others, who are there to make amends
[Chorus 2]
E9 B9 Walkin' the tightrope, trying to make it right E9 B9 Walkin' the tightrope, every day and every night E9 B9 Walkin' the tightrope, bring it all around A E9 E D B E D B Walkin' the tightrope, from the lost to found
[Chorus 3]
E9 B9 Walkin' the tightrope, streched around the world E9 B9 Walkin' the tightrope, save the boys and girls E9 B9 Walkin' the tightrope, let's make it right E9 B9 Walkin' the tightrope, do it, do it tonight
Walkin' the tightrope
