[Verso 1]
  
Am                            Em  
Through the wire, through the wire, through the wire  
     F                                  G            Am  
I'm watching her dance, her dress is a catch in the light.  
                   Em   
In het eyes, there's no lies, no lies. 
  F                             G        Am  
there's no question, she's not in a disguise.  


[Pré-Refrão]
  
F               G                  F  
There's no way out and a long way down,  
           G               F  
everybody needs someone around.  
             G                  F  
But I can't hold you, too close now,  
                               G  
through the wire, through the wire.  


[Refrão]

Am                   Em             F            G  
What a feeling to be right here beside you now, holding you in my arms.  
Am                  Em                    F                  G  
When the air ran out and we both started running wild, the sky fell down.  
     Am                  G            F                  G  
But you've got stars in your eyes and I've got something ?  
Am                 Em          F                   G  
What a feeling to be a king beside you, somehow I wish I could be there now.  


[Verso 2]
  
Am                             Em  
Through the wire, through the wire, through the wire  
     F                            G  
I'm watching like this imagining you're mine.  
Am                   Em  
It's too late, too late, am I too late?  
 F                         G  
Tell me now, am I running out of time?

through the wire, through the wire.

Dm                   F     
Whatever chains are holding you back,  
 Am                G  
holding you back, don't let 'em tie you down.  
Dm                   F  
Whatever chains are holding you back,  
 Am                 G  
holding you back, tell me you believe in that.

               I wish I could be there now.
