Tightrope Lyrics and Chords

Verse:
C
 I'm on the tightrope
F
 You've got your reasons
Am
 When did it get so hard to breathe
C
 Hot in the spotlight
F
 I'm feeling so tired
Am
 Your hands are burned from holding me
       C                   F             Am
 And maybe you and I will fall in time eventually


 Pre-Chorus:

  G             Em      F
 Maybe we'll both die trying
                      G            Em
 But I can't bring myself to leave
F
 'Cause I've looked


 Chorus:
     Am               F
 And I ain't seen nothing like you
      C                            
 The way you light up every 
        Am  D         C
room tonight so easily
     Am                 F   
 And I have moved mountains 
                C           Am
babe just to stumble into your 
good grace
     F                    Fm
 And I, I still can't compete


 Verse:

C
 You're on the tightrope
F
 I've got my reasons
Am
 How did we get so tangled?
C
 You turn, I stay straight
F
 I bend as you break
Am
 We're so messed up but I know


 Pre-Chorus II:
       G              Em             F
 That you and I will fall in time eventually
     G             Em       F
 Or maybe we'll both die trying


Repeat Chorus:

 Instrumental: C F Am (2x)


 Pre-Chorus III:
   G             Em             F
 You and I will fall in time eventually
     G             Em       F
 Or maybe we'll both die trying


Repeat Chorus:
