Man On Wire

Tom: Am

F/C
If I wrote down a hundred things,
F/G
That I thought that I could do,
G                       F
By the time that I was 67.

F/C
Would there be another list,
F/G
Of 99 things that I missed,
G                            F
Just because I had a fear of failing.

F
Would I have walked between two towers,
F/G
Just like the man on wire,
G                              F
Even though he had a chance of falling.

F
Would I have opened up my soul,
F/G
And let inside that deep dark hole,
G                               Am              F
Another human being capable of calling me back home?

G  Am  G  F

Em               F
And we can watch movies,
Em               F
And we can watch movies,
Am        G     F
Where all ends well.

Em              F
And we can do coffee,
Em              F
Yes we can do coffee,
Am        G      F
Where all starts hell.

Em      F       Em      F

Am      G       Am   G   F x5

Em F Em F  Am G  Em F


F/C
I wrote down a hundred things,
F/G
That I thought that I could do,
G                 F
By the age of 19 years old.

F/C
There's another list,
F/G
Of just one thing that I missed,
G                           F
All because I had a fear of failing.

F/C
One thing that I left,
F/G
Highly unadjusted,
G                               F
Without a line dividing up the letters.

F
If I ignored those little words,
F/G
I could never become hurt,
G                               F
I could move on and do so much better.

Em               F
And we can watch movies,
Em               F
And we can watch movies,
Am        G     F
Where all ends well.

Em              F
And we can do coffee,
Em              F
Yes we can do coffee,
Am        G      F
Where all starts hell.
