Tightrope

Leon Russell - Tightrope

Tom: Em

  			Intro: C - B7 

                    Em 
I'm up on the tightwire 
                Am 
one side's ice and one is fire 
        C        G                             F#m     B7 
its a circus game with you and me 
                    Em 
I'm up on the tightrope 
                Am 
one side's hate and one is hope 
            C                   G                   D 
but the top hat on my head is all you see 
            Bm 
And the wire seems to be  
              Em 
the only place for me 
   Bm                                C 
a comedy of errors and I'm falling 

**Chorus** 
           G                D/F# 
Like a rubber-neck giraffe  
        Em             D 
you look into my past 
        C                                               B7 
well maybe you're just to blind to - see 
                    Em 
I'm up in the spotlight 
                  Am 
ohh does it feel right 
             C          G                         F#m   B7 
ohh the altitude seems to get to me 
                     Em 
I'm up on the tightwire 
                 Am 
flanked by life and the funeral pyre 
           C       G                   D          
putting on a show for you to see      {interlude: Bm - C 
           G                D/F# 
Like a rubber-neck giraffe  
        Em             D 
you look into my past  
        C                                                 B7 
well maybe you're just too blind to - see 
                     Em 
I'm up in the spotlight  
                  Am 
ohh does it feel right 
             C          G                     F#m    B7 
ohh the altitude really gets to me 
                     Em 
I'm up on the tightwire 
                 Am 
flanked by life and the funeral pyre 
            C      G                        F#m  B7 
putting on a show for you to see 

final: Em - Am - C - G - F#m - B7
