                        Em                               Am 
                        There we were thick as thieves  
G                                                   B 
Frightened by shadows and the autumn leaves  
               Em               Am 
We wore stolen hats, fitted souls  
G                                          B 
Aided by lies amongst the media foes  

      Em        G 
And hey ho Where did it go? 
Am                                B                     Em 
When did we lose our sight? And it's a nice show 
        G                        Am                                    B 
The ones we perform, Performing them day and night 
          Am G Em   Am G 
Night...  

Em                Am 
See the lines upon my face  
G                                   B 
Walking circles with the human race  
                  Em                      Am 
And all the little people, They want to be free 
       G                                             B 
But I can't get there Coz I got you holding me back 

        Em      G 
And hey ho Where did it go? 
Am                                B                    Em 
When did we lose our sight? And it's a nice show 
       G                        Am                                    B             Am G 
The ones we perform Performing them day and night Night... 

Am    G 
Let me be free  
Em                          G 
La lalala la lalala, la lalala la la la la 
Am                        B                          
La lalala la lalala, la lalala la la la la 
Em                          G 
La lalala la lalala, la lalala la la la la 
Am                        B                          
La lalala la lalala, la lalala la la la la 

Em                       Am                           G               B 
I gave you all the high skies But you gave me night 
Em                       Am                           G                B 
I gave you all the high skies But you gave me night, yeah 
Em                       Am                           G                B 
I gave you all the high skies But you gave me night 
Em                       Am                           G               B 
I gave you all the high skies But you gave me night 
B                                         Am G 
Let the lights sing again...  

Em                    Am 
There we were thick as thieves  
G                                                   B 
Frightened by shadows and the autumn leaves  

Goodbye my sweet  
Goodbye  
Goodbye...
