Capo 2 
  
G  
Who would have thought that I'd be here by myself?  
Bm  
Who would have thought that you'd be bad for my health?  
Cadd9  
Now I know, now I know  
                    G    D  
I'm just a man on a wire, oh  

G  
Who would have thought I'd be the cause and effect?  
Bm  
Yesterday's love is not tomorrow's regrets  
Cadd9  
Now I know, now I know  
                    G  D  
I'm just a man on a wire  

Pre-Chorus  

Cadd9  
No, I can't look down  
I'm trying to fight the feeling  
       Em7  
I will fall to the ground  
If I even see you  
     G  D    
'Cos I      



[Refrão]
                        G  
Feel like I'm walkin' a tightrope  
               D  
My heart is in my throat  
                Em7                        Cadd9  
I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you  
                G  
And I've got my eyes closed  
               D  
As long as the wind blows  
                Em7                       Cadd9  
I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you, you  
            G                      D  
Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire  
      Em7                    Cadd9  
I'm a man on a wire, on a wire  



     
G
Who would have thought I'd see you with someone else? 
Bm 
Who would have thought that I'd be in such a mess? 
Cadd9 
Now you know, now you know
              G      D
I'm just a man on a wire  



Pre-Chorus

Cadd9 
When I walk that line  
I'll try to keep my senses 
       Em7
Make it to the other side  
I know the consequences and
  G D
I

I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you  
                G  
And I've got my eyes closed  
               D

I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you, you  
            G                      D  
Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire  
      Em7                    Cadd9  
I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

Bridge:
  
    D        Em7  
The higher I get  
    G               C  
The more I miss the ground  
D        Em7  
No safetiness  
G              C  
Now you're not around  
D              Em7  
I have to keep walking  
G                      C    D  
To keep me from falling down
