(BmF#mDABmDF#m)BmDEBmDE
They say the world's an eventful place
BmDEBmDE
You give me news I don't want to know
BmF#mGA
You say that I should care that I should speak
BmDEBmDE
my mind
F#mDABm
Oh but how can I speak of the world rushing by
DAD
With a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes
E7F#mDABm
Have we come to the point of no turning back
DA
Or is it still time to get into the
BmDEBmDE
swing of things
BmDEBmDE
Let us walk through this windless city
BmDEBmDE
I'll go on till the winter gets me
BmF#mG
"Sleep..." you wrote "Sleep my dear"
ABmDEBmDE
in a letter somewhere
F#mDA
Oh but how can I sleep with your voice
Bm
in my head
DAD
And an ocean between us and room in my bed
E7F#mDA
Have I come to the point where I'm
Bm
losing the grip
DA
Or is it still time to get into the
BmDEBmDE
swing of things
BmDEBmDEDEF#mD
When she glows in the dark
ABm
and I'm weak by the sight
DAD
Of this breathtaking beauty in which I can hide
E7F#mDABm
There's a worldful out there of people I fear
D
But given time
AD
I'll get into the swing of things
E7F#mD
Yes when she glows in the dark
ABm
and I'm struck by the sight
D
I know that I'll need this
ADE7F#mDABm
for the rest of my life
DAD - E7F#mDABm - DADE7F#mDABm - DAD - E7F#mDABm
What have I done what lies I have told
D
I've played games with the ones
AD
that rescued my soul
E7F#mD
Have I come to the point
ABm
where I'm losing the grip
DA
Or is it still time to get into
DBm
The swing of things
