(C#m G#m E B C#m E F#m)
C#m E F# C#m E F#
They say the world's an eventful place
C#m E F# C#m E F#
You give me news I don't want to know
C#m G#m A B
You say that I should care that I should speak
C#m E F# C#m E F#
my mind
G#m E B C#m
Oh but how can I speak of the world rushing by
E B E
With a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes
F#7 G#m E B C#m
Have we come to the point of no turning back
E B
Or is it still time to get into the
C#m E F# C#m E F#
swing of things
C#m E F# C#m E F#
Let us walk through this windless city
C#m E F# C#m E F#
I'll go on till the winter gets me
C#m G#m A
"Sleep..." you wrote "Sleep my dear"
B C#m E F# C#m E F#
in a letter somewhere
G#m E B
Oh but how can I sleep with your voice
C#m
in my head
E B E
And an ocean between us and room in my bed
F#7 G#m E B
Have I come to the point where I'm
C#m
losing the grip
E B
Or is it still time to get into the
C#m E F# C#m E F#
swing of things
C#m E F# C#m E F# E F#
G#m E
When she glows in the dark
B C#m
and I'm weak by the sight
E B E
Of this breathtaking beauty in which I can hide
F#7 G#m E B C#m
There's a worldful out there of people I fear
E
But given time
B E
I'll get into the swing of things
F#7 G#m E
Yes when she glows in the dark
B C#m
and I'm struck by the sight
E
I know that I'll need this
B E F#7 G#m E B C#m
for the rest of my life
E B E F#7 G#m E B C#m E B E
F#7 G#m E B C#m E B E F#7
G#m E B C#m
What have I done what lies I have told
E
I've played games with the ones
B E
that rescued my soul
F#7 G#m E
Have I come to the point
B C#m
where I'm losing the grip
E B
Or is it still time to get into
E C#m
The swing of things
