[Verse 1]
Em
Well another day's gone by
D
The dawn so long ago
C
And the memories keep flying high
G C
And the moments go so slow
C G
'Cause I'm on both sides of the line
D G
Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind
[Verse 2]
Em
And I'm five kinds of senseless

My heart is beating slow

Yeah, I got struck by lightning
G C
And I was sad to see it go

'Cause I'm on both sides of the line
D G
Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind

'Cause I'm on both sides of the line

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

In the service of the question
G C
I just had to see it go

'Cause I'm on both sides of the line
D G
Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind

[Verse 5]
Em
And I'm easy in the ether,
D
Swinging to and fro
C
Lighter than a feather
G C
With a mountain range in tow
C G
'Cause I'm on both sides of the line
D G
Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind
[Verse 6]
Em
And the fruits of my own labor
D
Bears a seed I'll never sow
C
Yeah, they cut down my pride
G C
But I was glad to see it go
C G
'Cause I'm on both sides of the line
D G
Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind
[Outro]

I'm on both sides of the line
D G Em D C
Bitter on the fruit
G C
Sweet on the rind
