Well, I am an idiot walking a tightrope
(C major) of fortune (D major) and fame (G major)
I am an acrobat swinging trapezes
(C major) through circles (D major) of flame (G major)
If you've nev (B minor) er stared off in the dis (C major) tance,

Well, there's a piece of Maria in
(C major) every song (D major) that I sing (G major)
And the price of a memory is the memory

And there is al (B minor) ways one last light

And the last (D major) one out of the cir (C major) cus

Or the elephants will get out and forget

(G major) When I see (D major) you a blanket of
stars (C major) covers me in bed
(G major)

Verse 7
All the blue light reflections that color (C major)
my mind (D major) when I sleep (G major)
And the lovesick rejections that accom
(C major) pany the com (D major) pany I (G major) keep
All the razor (B minor) perceptions that
cut (C major) just a little too deep (G major)
Hey I can (D major) bleed as well as anyone,
but I need (C major) someone to help me sleep
(G major)
Verse 8
So I throw my hand into the air (C major) and
it swim (D major) s in the beam (G major) s
It's just a brief interruption of the swirl
(C major) ing dust sparkle (D major) jet stream (G major)
Well, I know (B minor) I don't know you and
you're probably (C major) not what you seem (G major)
But I'd (D major) sure like to find out
So why don't you climb (C major) down
off that movie (G major) screen
Verse 9
(G major)
Hey (B minor) Mr (C major) s. Pot (G major) ter don't turn (D major)

Hey (B minor) (C major) Mrs. Pot (D major) ter won't
you talk (C major) to me

Verse 10
When the last (G major) king of Hollywood shatters
his glass (D major) on (G major) the floor

That's when I know (B minor) that I have to get

(C major) and I head for the door

We shout (B minor) out these songs against

(D major) a million miles tonight
But (C major) you can't get very far
