              E
You’ve got me hanging in the air,

         A
Like the stars up in the sky,

    E
Not knowing if you care,

A
If I live or die.
[Verse 2]
      D
While you go runnin’ round,

     A
With half the girls in town,

       E
I just hang there, like anew,

          E7                  A
While the world goes whizzin’ by.
[Verse 3]
           E             E7
You got me danglin’ on a string,

       A
Like a puppet in a plane,

E
Trying hard to sing,

        A
But the tears won’t go away,

   D
If I had have a mind,

A
I leave you behind,

           E
But I just hang there, like anew,

          E7                  A
While the world goes whizzin’ by.
[Interlude] E A [Verse 4]
              E
You’ve got me spinnin’ round and round,

       A
Like a top upon the floor,

     E
Each time you throw me down,

A                   A7
I spin back for more,

    D
I’m so high in the air,

  A
I can’t see land nowhere,

           E
And I just hang there, like anew,

          E7                  A
While the world goes whizzin’ by.
[Outro] A E A
