  			        Em                            
You lost control, you crossed the line 
                                           A 
You walked the edge one last time 
        Em 
Closed the door, locked the gate 
                                       A 
Spin the wheel, twist your fate 
        Em                    
Heard the call, walked the wall 
                                        C 
Cut the rope and watch us fall 


 G    D        Am               C 
In a cloud, take a look around 
 G    D        Am               C 
You're so high, you're not coming down 
 G    D        Am               C 
Broke the reins, fading away 
 G    D        Am               C              Em 
You're so high, you're not coming down 


Em                                      A 
You've no regard for who's around you 
Em 
Spinning out with no escape 
                                      A 
In a world of a different shape 
Em 
It's all the same, it's all the same 
                                              A 
You go back from where you came 


 G    D        Am               C 
In a cloud, take a look around 
 G    D        Am               C 
You're so high, you're not coming down 
 G    D        Am               C 
Broke the reins, fading away 
 G    D        Am               C 
You're so high, you're not coming down 
G     D                                           F         E 
You're so high, you're not coming down 

Stay on E....... 

E 
So clever, you don't have a clue 
            E      E/F#   E/G#         E    C 
What is real    and     what      is    half of the deal 
E 
You just can't feel 
E 
You're all messed up 
                                       E      E/F#   E/G#         
You're never happy with what you've got 
E    C                                        A    F 
It's never enough, you just give up
