This is the story on how we lived
The glory of what we did
It started when we were kids
With music up in our heads
She said

(Verse 1)
A5         C5                G5
 I've been out on the edge
           D5
Breathin a little bit of fresh air
A5          C5                 G5
 Big dreams, I took a chance
            D5
Held out for everything i've got here

(Pre Chorus)
A5         C5            G5
 I've been feeling this life's a circus
D5
Hangin on without a fear

(Chorus)
A5
Livin on a high wire
C5
Runnin through a wildfire
G5                   D5
You can't shake me, I'm not goin nowhere
A5
Walkin on a tight rope
C5
No net, high hopes
G5              D5
Step back, I'm gonna make it over
A5    C5
Na na na na na na na
G5     D5
Na na livin on a high wire
A5    C5
Na na na na na na na
G5     D5
Na na livin on a high wire

This is the story of how we lived
The glory of what we did
It started when we were kids
With music up in our heads
She said

A5         C5                   G5
Big top, turnin around, no clowns
              D5
Im runnin as I hit the ground
A5               C5            G5
Front row, big show is sold out
                             D5
So I'm ready for the crowd roar, lets go

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

Bridge
(look up a tab for this part)

When it comes to the beat
Seeing that the heads are moving
Move off your seat
Achievement is what we're really doing
Freedom of speech
I'm in it just to win it
I'm springin' and I can see it
In the end that you can be it
'Cause it's patience, it's statements
Famous greatness
Movin' 'til you make it through
And maybe you can make it too

(no guitar)
Livin on a high wire
Can't shake me I'm not goin nowhere

A5                   C5                  G5
Walking a tight rope no net high hopes
              D5
Step back I'm gonna make it over
A5    C5
Na na na na na na na
G5     D5
Na na livin on a high wire
A5    C5
Na na na na na na na
G5     D5               A5 C5   G5        D5
Na na livin on a high wire  (yeah yeah)
A5    C5
Na na na na na na na
G5     D5                   A5
Na na livin on a high wire
