F        Bb            C 
There you walk out on the high wire
Bb          F      Bb
You're dancer on thin ice
F         Bb        C
You pay no heed to the danger
Am  Dm    C
And less to advice
F                Bb C
Your footsteps are forbidden
Am      Bb              C 
But with knowledge of your sin
F   Bb                    F Bb
You throw your love to all the strangers
                     Dm 
And the caution to the wind

A G | G F | Eb D | Eb D | Eb D | Eb D C Bb | A

F          Bb                  C 
And you go dancing through the doorways
Bb                      F  Bb
Just to see what you gonna find there
F       Bb       C
Leaving nothing to interfere
Am          Dm            C
With the crazy balance of your mind
F            Bb    C 
And when you finally reappear
Am    Bb           C 
At the place where you came in
F   Bb                    F Bb
You've thrown your love to all the strangers
                     Dm 
And the caution to the wind

A G | G F | Eb D | Eb D | Eb D | Eb D C Bb | A

C  
It takes love over gold
         F                      Bb
And mind over matter
C            Bb        Dm 
To do what you do that you must
C
When the things that you hold
         Eb
Can fall and be shattered
                          Dm
Or run through your fingers like dust
