<< Back to The Script Song List

Version 1

            [Verse 1]
G
Who'd have thought that I'd be here by myself?
Bm
Who'd 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'd have thought about the cause and effect?
Bm
Yesterday's love is now tomorrow's regret
      Cadd9
Now I know, now I know
                    G        D
I'm just a man on a wire, oh-oh


[Pre-Chorus 1]
      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
    Cadd9  D
'Cos I ...


[Chorus]
                        G
Feel like I'm walkin' a tightrope
               D/F#
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/F#
As long as the wind blows
                Em7                       Cadd9
I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you, you
            G                      D/F#
Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire
      Em7                    Cadd9
I'm a man on a wire, on a wire


[Verse 2]
G
Who'd have thought I'd see you with someone else?
Bm
Who'd 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, oh-oh


[Pre-Chorus 2]
       Cadd9
When I walk that line

I'll try to keep my senses
        Em7
Make it to the other side
                            Cadd9  D
I know the consequences and I


[Chorus]
                        G
Feel like I'm walkin' a tightrope
               D/F#
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/F#
As long as the wind blows
                Em7                       Cadd9
I'm counting on high hope to get me over you, you
            G                      D/F#
Cause I'm a man on a wire,on a wire
      Em7                 Cadd9
I'm a man on a wire, on a wire
            G                      D/F#
Cause I'm a man on a wire,on a wire
            Em7                   Cadd9
Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire


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


[Chorus]
                        G
Feel like I'm walkin' a tightrope
               D/F#
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/F#
As long as the wind blows
                Em7                       Cadd9
I'm counting on high hope to get me over you, you
            G                      D/F#
Cause I'm a man on a wire,on a wire
      Em7                 Cadd9
I'm a man on a wire, on a wire
            G                      D/F#
Cause I'm a man on a wire,on a wire
            Em7      D/F#       G  Cadd9
Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire
