[Intro]
Fm A#/D D# A#/D C# G#/C C


[Verse 1]
Fm     C/E
I keep dreaming
D#       A#/D
That I'm falling
C#           G#/C   C
  There's no safety net
Fm       C/E
You look up with
D#        A#/D
Arms wide open
C#          G#/C
  Then you smile
    C
and walk away


[Verse 2]
Fm             C/E
  I guess that Freud
              D#
would have an answer
     A#/D
He'd say that I was
C#             G#/C
twisted and confused
           C
and just insane
C
Couldn't blame him
Fm            C/E
  I feel like lately all
    D#
the things I took for
A#/D                C#
granted Flipped and changed
G#/C    C
Now I'm losing grip again


[Chorus 1]
G#    D#  A#m    Fm
  Ohh Ohhh   I'm walking the
A#m          Fm         C#
tightrope between who I love
    C      G#       D#
And what I know Ohh Ohhh
A#m    Fm           A#m
   I'm watching the sharks
           Fm
Lick there lips as they
C#     C     Fm C/E D# A#/D C# G#/C C
circle Far below


[Verse 3]
     Fm      C/E
I'd slip my skin
   D#           A#/D
and  loose this face
  C#         G#/C
If  we could find a
C               Fm
secret place to hide
        C/E    D#
Say the words I  need
   A#/D    C#
to hear and  I would
G#/C     C
leave it all behind


[Verse 4]
Fm           C/E
  My psychic says she sees
  D#        A#/D
disaster My heart is begging
C#            G#/C
that I take a giant leap of
C            Fm
faith Oh woah  See are you
C/E              D#
really worth the risk of
       A#/D
losing everything I
C#   G#/C     C
have For what might
        C
be one stupid kiss?


[Chorus 2]
G#    D#  A#m    Fm
  Ohh Ohhh   I'm walking the
A#m          Fm         C#
tightrope between who I love
    C      G#       D#
And what I know Ohh Ohhh
A#m    Fm           A#m
   I'm watching the sharks
           Fm
Lick there lips as they
C#     C
circle Far below


[Bridge]
D#                      F#
  I don't know why it is  that
          F#
you won't say you love me
D#                       F#
  I don't know what it is


[Verse 5]
Fm     C/E      D#      A#/D
I keep slipping back to you
    C#          G#/C     C
When  you're no good for me
Fm     C/E     D#     A#/D
I keep wanting what I can't have
C#  G#/C        C
Mr. Freud would you disagree?


[Chorus 3]
G#    D#  A#m    Fm
  Ohh Ohhh   I'm walking the
A#m          Fm         C#
tightrope between who I love
    C      G#       D#
And what I know Ohh Ohhh
A#m    Fm           A#m
   I'm watching the sharks
           Fm
Lick there lips as they
C#     C
circle Far below


[Outro]
D#                      F#
  I don't know why it is  that
          F#
you won't say you love me
D#                       F#
  I don't know what it is
                       F#
But this tightrope has got me!
