Note: It's all barre chords, which might be a problem for some of you. Jim’s guitar is capoed at the 4th fret, and is played in D.
Intro: F#
F#
She sits like a bird on a wire
she put the stars in my eyes.
She takes me higher and higher
G#m
she never speaks but she cries.
A#m
Sometimes I wake up
D#m
and it's already night.
A#m
Look out my window
G#
and I'm frightened by the sight.
B
All the streets are glowing in the
pale moonlight.
She slips her hand into mine
leads me along through the park.
She knows the questions but it's never
the time
soon I'm alone in the dark.
It's time I rise up
and move with the breeze.
Get out of my head
I'm so easy to please.
I think I'm getting tired of being
down on my knees.
CHORUS:
F#
B
You know that I'm waiting
F# B
you're making excuses
F#
B C#
I'm borderline useless from hanging
around.
F#
B
My whole body's swaying
F#
B
this game we keep playing
F#
B
C#
has left me here praying the walls
will come down
F#
All in time.
Instrumental: D#m G#m D#m G# B
She wears a mystical ring
sparkles when she moves her hand.
She sends me back all the gifts that
I
bring
laughs cause I don't understand.
It's time I rise up
and move with the breeze.
Get out of my head now
I'm so easy to please.
I think I'm getting tired of being
down on my knees.
CHORUS
F# B
F# B
All in time
