G#m
Well another day's gone by
F#
The dawn so long ago
E
And the memories keep flying high
B E
And the moments go so slow
E B
'Cause I'm on both sides of the line
F# B
Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind
[Verse 2]
G#m
And I'm five kinds of senseless
F#
My heart is beating slow

'Cause I'm on both sides of the line
F# B
Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind

G#m
Well I'm sitting at the head,
F#
Stealing my own show
E
And the plates are up on sticks
B E
And I'm spinning tales of woe
E B
'Cause I'm on both sides of the line
F# B
Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind
[Verse 4]
G#m
And there once was an answer
F#
But now I don't care to know

In the service of the question
B E
I just had to see it go

G#m
And I'm easy in the ether,
F#
Swinging to and fro
E
Lighter than a feather
B E
With a mountain range in tow
E B
'Cause I'm on both sides of the line
F# B
Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind
[Verse 6]
G#m
And the fruits of my own labor
F#
Bears a seed I'll never sow
E
Yeah, they cut down my pride
B E
But I was glad to see it go
E B
'Cause I'm on both sides of the line
F# B
Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind
[Outro]
E B
I'm on both sides of the line
F# B G#m F# E
Bitter on the fruit
B E
Sweet on the rind
