G               G/B               C             D 
It's out of control (out of control) and there's nothing I can do now 
          G               G/B            C                  D 
Out of control (out of control) Swimming softly through the blue now 
    Bm                Em           Am      Bm        C 
And look beyond these walls as the meaning starts to dawn 
     D                 Em  D C                  G 
It's getting to the point       getting to the point. 
 
 
               G                 G/B           C                 D 
It's out of control (nothing I can do) like a fire that keeps on burning 
           G                     G/B              C                    D 
And nobody knows (what I'm going through) and the thoughts just keep returning 
    Bm             Em           Am     Bm      C 
And all you had to say was that you were gonna stay 
     D                 Em D C      D              G 
It's getting to the point       it's getting to the point. 
 
     G       D      C                      G/B 
It's getting to the point where nobody can stop it now 
     G       D      C             G/B 
It's getting to the point of no return  
    G        D     C 
And all that I can do 
             G        Em            Am    Bm    D 
Is stand and watch it now  watch it burn, burn, burn 
 
     G       D      C                       G/B 
It's getting to the point where reasons are forgotten 
     G       D      C                  G/B 
It's getting to the point where no one knows 
    G        D     C             G   Em 
And all that I can do is say I'm sorry 
               Am  Bm C        D              G 
But that's the way it goes...  Getting to the point.    
 
*(Second time: But that's the way it goes, hey...ey)
 
  G           C          D 
Forever is a long, long way 
  G                   C     D 
Forever, takes your breath away 
    Bm               Em     Am      Bm   C 
I'd like to talk about it, try to understand 
     D                 Em  D C  D              G 
It's getting to the point,     Getting to the point.

Ending: 
                    G              Am     G/B 
It's getting to the point (getting to the point) 
C              G              Am     G/B 
Getting to the point (getting to the point) 
     C              G              Am     G/B 
It's getting to the point (getting to the point) 
C              G 
Getting to the point.
