[verse]
             A#sus2
We're living in

a different reality
      D#m7                     Fm7
We're toeing the same line

        A#sus2
We give in

we call it neutrality
   D#m7                     Fm7
A joke with no punchline


                  F#    G#
The silver plated hero
                         A#sus2
Meets the golden hearted whore

                     F#    G#
The odds'll give you zero
                       A#m          Fsus4/C  A#sus2/C
She'll be leaving in a few days more


[bridge]
A#sus4        D#/A#
Movin' on forever
D#m              A#
maybe she don't care

A#sus4         D#/A#
Holding on together,
D#m                   A#
maybe it just ain't there


[chorus]
       A#sus2        F#        G#
You're dancing on a high wire
                  A#m
You need to be so sure
                   F#       G#
There used to be a lifeline
               A#m
There isn't anymore


[verse]
           A#sus2
We are the same with no similarity
   D#m7                    Fm7
We talk at the same time
     A#sus2
We believe in freedom and charity
   D#m7                  Fm7
As long as I get mine


          F#      G#
The ivory madonna
                       A#sus2
is walking through the door

                     F#      G#
You watch her from a window
                     A#m    Fsus4/C  A#sus2/C
It doesn't matter anymore


[bridge]
A#sus4        D#/A#
Movin' on forever

maybe it just ain't there


[chorus]
       A#sus2        F#        G#
You're dancing on a high wire
                  A#m
You need to be so sure
                   F#       G#
There used to be a lifeline
               A#m
There isn't anymore
