(Am Em C G Am C F#m)
Am C D Am C D
They say the world's an eventful place
Am C D Am C D
You give me news I don't want to know
Am Em F G
You say that I should care that I should speak
Am C D Am C D
my mind
Em C G Am
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
D7 Em C G Am
Have we come to the point of no turning back
C G
Or is it still time to get into the
Am C D Am C D
swing of things
Am C D Am C D
Let us walk through this windless city
Am C D Am C D
I'll go on till the winter gets me
Am Em F
"Sleep..." you wrote "Sleep my dear"
G Am C D Am C D
in a letter somewhere
Em C G
Oh but how can I sleep with your voice
Am
in my head
C G C
And an ocean between us and room in my bed
D7 Em C G
Have I come to the point where I'm
Am
losing the grip
C G
Or is it still time to get into the
Am C D Am C D
swing of things
Am C D Am C D C D
Em C
When she glows in the dark
G Am
and I'm weak by the sight
C G C
Of this breathtaking beauty in which I can hide
D7 Em C G Am
There's a worldful out there of people I fear
C
But given time
G C
I'll get into the swing of things
D7 Em C
Yes when she glows in the dark
G Am
and I'm struck by the sight
C
I know that I'll need this
G C D7 Em C G Am
for the rest of my life
C G C D7 Em C G Am C G C
D7 Em C G Am C G C D7
Em C G Am
What have I done what lies I have told
C
I've played games with the ones
G C
that rescued my soul
D7 Em C
Have I come to the point
G Am
where I'm losing the grip
C G
Or is it still time to get into
C Am
The swing of things
