They say the world's an eventful place
Cm D# F Cm D# F
You give me news I don't want to know
Cm Gm G# A#
You say that I should care that I should speak
Cm D# F Cm D# F
my mind
Gm D# A# Cm
Oh but how can I speak of the world rushing by
D# A# D#
With a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes
F7 Gm D# A# Cm
Have we come to the point of no turning back
D# A#
Or is it still time to get into the
Cm D# F Cm D# F
swing of things
Cm D# F Cm D# F
Let us walk through this windless city
Cm D# F Cm D# F
I'll go on till the winter gets me
Cm Gm G#
"Sleep..." you wrote "Sleep my dear"
A# Cm D# F Cm D# F
in a letter somewhere
Gm D# A#
Oh but how can I sleep with your voice
Cm
in my head
D# A# D#
And an ocean between us and room in my bed
F7 Gm D# A#
Have I come to the point where I'm
Cm
losing the grip
D# A#
Or is it still time to get into the
Cm D# F Cm D# F
swing of things
Cm D# F Cm D# F D# F
Gm D#
When she glows in the dark
A# Cm
and I'm weak by the sight
D# A# D#
Of this breathtaking beauty in which I can hide
F7 Gm D# A# Cm
There's a worldful out there of people I fear
D#
But given time
A# D#
I'll get into the swing of things
F7 Gm D#
Yes when she glows in the dark
A# Cm
and I'm struck by the sight
D#
I know that I'll need this
A# D# F7 Gm D# A# Cm
for the rest of my life
D# A# D# F7 Gm D# A# Cm D# A# D#
F7 Gm D# A# Cm D# A# D# F7
Gm D# A# Cm
What have I done what lies I have told
D#
I've played games with the ones
A# D#
that rescued my soul
F7 Gm D#
Have I come to the point
A# Cm
where I'm losing the grip
D# A#
Or is it still time to get into
D# Cm
The swing of things
