They say the world's an eventful place
Fm G# A# Fm G# A#
You give me news I don't want to know
Fm Cm C# D#
You say that I should care that I should speak
Fm G# A# Fm G# A#
my mind
Cm G# D# Fm
Oh but how can I speak of the world rushing by
G# D# G#
With a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes
A#7 Cm G# D# Fm
Have we come to the point of no turning back
G# D#
Or is it still time to get into the
Fm G# A# Fm G# A#
swing of things
Fm G# A# Fm G# A#
Let us walk through this windless city
Fm G# A# Fm G# A#
I'll go on till the winter gets me

"Sleep..." you wrote "Sleep my dear"
D# Fm G# A# Fm G# A#
in a letter somewhere
Cm G# D#
Oh but how can I sleep with your voice
Fm
in my head
G# D# G#
And an ocean between us and room in my bed
A#7 Cm G# D#
Have I come to the point where I'm
Fm
losing the grip
G# D#
Or is it still time to get into the
Fm G# A# Fm G# A#
swing of things
Fm G# A# Fm G# A# G# A#

When she glows in the dark
D# Fm
and I'm weak by the sight
G# D# G#
Of this breathtaking beauty in which I can hide
A#7 Cm G# D# Fm
There's a worldful out there of people I fear
G#
But given time
D# G#
I'll get into the swing of things
A#7 Cm G#
Yes when she glows in the dark
D# Fm
and I'm struck by the sight
G#
I know that I'll need this
D# G# A#7 Cm G# D# Fm
for the rest of my life

What have I done what lies I have told
G#
I've played games with the ones
D# G#
that rescued my soul
A#7 Cm G#
Have I come to the point
D# Fm
where I'm losing the grip
G# D#
Or is it still time to get into
G# Fm
The swing of things
