[C] [B]
I'm up [Em] on a tight wire, [C] one side's ice and one is fire
It's a circus [G] game with you [F#] and me
[B]
I'm up [Em] on a tight rope, [C] one side's cage and one is hole
But the top hat [G] on my head is all [D] you see
And [Bm] the wire seems to be the [Em] only place for me
[Bm] A comedy of errors [C] and a falling
[G] Like a [D] rubberneck giraffe, [Em] you look into [D] my pants
[C] Well baby, you're just too blind to [B] see
I'm [Em] up in the spotlight, oh [C] does it feel right?
Well, the [G] altitude seems to [F#] get to me
[B] I'm [Em] up on a tight wire, [C] linked by life and the funeral pyre
But I ain't [G] on the show for [D] you to see
