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