(Em Bm G D Em G F#m)
Em G A Em G A
They say the world's an eventful place
Em G A Em G A
You give me news I don't want to know
Em Bm C D
You say that I should care that I should speak
Em G A Em G A
my mind
Bm G D Em
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
A7 Bm G D Em
Have we come to the point of no turning back
G D
Or is it still time to get into the
Em G A Em G A
swing of things
Em G A Em G A
Let us walk through this windless city
Em G A Em G A
I'll go on till the winter gets me
Em Bm C
"Sleep..." you wrote "Sleep my dear"
D Em G A Em G A
in a letter somewhere
Bm G D
Oh but how can I sleep with your voice
Em
in my head
G D G
And an ocean between us and room in my bed
A7 Bm G D
Have I come to the point where I'm
Em
losing the grip
G D
Or is it still time to get into the
Em G A Em G A
swing of things
Em G A Em G A G A
Bm G
When she glows in the dark
D Em
and I'm weak by the sight
G D G
Of this breathtaking beauty in which I can hide
A7 Bm G D Em
There's a worldful out there of people I fear
G
But given time
D G
I'll get into the swing of things
A7 Bm G
Yes when she glows in the dark
D Em
and I'm struck by the sight
G
I know that I'll need this
D G A7 Bm G D Em
for the rest of my life
G D G A7 Bm G D Em G D G
A7 Bm G D Em G D G A7
Bm G D Em
What have I done what lies I have told
G
I've played games with the ones
D G
that rescued my soul
A7 Bm G
Have I come to the point
D Em
where I'm losing the grip
G D
Or is it still time to get into
G Em
The swing of things
