Tight Rope chords and lyrics - LEON RUSSELL

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Am]I'm [B]up on the tight wi[Em]re
One side's [Am]ice and one is fire
It's [C]a circus g[G]ame with
you [F#dim]and me[B]

[Verse 2]
I'm up on the [Em]tight rope
One side's [Am]hate and one is hope
But the [C]top hat on my [G]head is all you [D]see

[Verse 3]
And the [Bm]wire seems to be
the only [Em]place for me
A [Bm]comedy of errors and I'm [C]falling
Like a [G]rubber-neck giraffe, giraf[D]fe,
you [Em]look into my pas[D]t
Well, [C]baby you're just too
blind [Am]to s[B]ee

[Verse 4]
I'm up in the [Em]spotlight
Oh, does it [Am]feel right
[C]Oh, the alti[G]tude seems
to get [F#dim]to me[B]

[Verse 5]
I'm up on the [Em]tight wire
Flanked by [Am]life and the funeral pyre
[C]Putting on [G]a show for you to [D]see
[Bm][B][Em][B][Bm][B]

[Verse 6]
[C]
Like a [G]rubber-neck giraffe, giraf[D]fe,
you [Em]look into my [D]past
Well, [C]baby you're just too blind to [B]see

[Verse 7]
I'm up in the [Em]spotlight
Oh, does it [Am]feel right
Oh, the [C]altitude [G]really gets to [F#dim]me
[B]I'm up on the

[Verse 8]
[Em]tight wire
Flanked [Am]by life and the funeral pyre
[C]Putting on a [G]show for you to see
