(Gm Dm A# F Gm A# F#m)
Gm A# C Gm A# C
They say the world's an eventful place
Gm A# C Gm A# C
You give me news I don't want to know
Gm Dm D# F
You say that I should care that I should speak
Gm A# C Gm A# C
my mind
Dm A# F Gm
Oh but how can I speak of the world rushing by
A# F A#
With a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes
C7 Dm A# F Gm
Have we come to the point of no turning back
A# F
Or is it still time to get into the
Gm A# C Gm A# C
swing of things
Gm A# C Gm A# C
Let us walk through this windless city
Gm A# C Gm A# C
I'll go on till the winter gets me
Gm Dm D#
"Sleep..." you wrote "Sleep my dear"
F Gm A# C Gm A# C
in a letter somewhere
Dm A# F
Oh but how can I sleep with your voice
Gm
in my head
A# F A#
And an ocean between us and room in my bed
C7 Dm A# F
Have I come to the point where I'm
Gm
losing the grip
A# F
Or is it still time to get into the
Gm A# C Gm A# C
swing of things
Gm A# C Gm A# C A# C
Dm A#
When she glows in the dark
F Gm
and I'm weak by the sight
A# F A#
Of this breathtaking beauty in which I can hide
C7 Dm A# F Gm
There's a worldful out there of people I fear
A#
But given time
F A#
I'll get into the swing of things
C7 Dm A#
Yes when she glows in the dark
F Gm
and I'm struck by the sight
A#
I know that I'll need this
F A# C7 Dm A# F Gm
for the rest of my life
A# F A# C7 Dm A# F Gm A# F A#
C7 Dm A# F Gm A# F A# C7
Dm A# F Gm
What have I done what lies I have told
A#
I've played games with the ones
F A#
that rescued my soul
C7 Dm A#
Have I come to the point
F Gm
where I'm losing the grip
A# F
Or is it still time to get into
A# Gm
The swing of things
