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