David Francey - Highwire Chords

CAPO: 4th Fret




INTRO: Am  G F  G  C    G

                                C             G
It's a three-ring circus on the edge of town
                               Am      C
With hoops and dogs and falling circus clowns
     G                          C
And I'm up on a tightrope and I can't look down
       F   C
It's a highwire
       F   C     G
It's a highwire


                                     C                  G
Then the crowd grows quiet, then the crowd grows still
                             Am      C
I whisper, "I love you, and I always will"
  G                                        C
Ahh, but you never can tell when you might Jack and Jill
         F   C
From the highwire
         F   C     G
From the highwire


CHORUS:
     G                      C
This love (this love), this love (this love)
     Am  F
Is a highwire
     G                      C
This love (this love), this love (this love)
     Am  F
Is a highwire
     G                      C
This love (this love), this love (this love)
     Am  F
Is a highwire
           C            F   C        G
It's a highwire, it's a highwire


                               C               G
Straight and narrow, stretched hard and tight
                                       Am       C
It's a centre shot in the glare of the cold spotlight
     G                              C
And I'm walking a thin line between day and night
       F   C
On the highwire
       F   C     G
On the highwire


                                     C           G
And the hard ground's waiting in the dark below
                               Am      C
And my heart's so heavy and I'm moving slow
     G                            C
And I'm hoping I make it, but you never know
       F   C
On the highwire
       F   C     
On the highwire


CHORUS:
     G                      C
This love (this love), this love (this love)
     Am  F
Is a highwire
     G                      C
This love (this love), this love (this love)
     Am  F
Is a highwire
     G                      C
This love (this love), this love (this love)
     Am  F
Is a highwire
           C            F   C     
It's a highwire, it's a highwire


INTERLUDE: Am  G F  G  C    G


                                C             G
It's a three-ring circus on the edge of town
                               Am      C
With hoops and dogs and falling circus clowns
     G                          C
And I'm up on a tightrope and I can't look down
       F   C
It's a highwire
       F   C    
It's a highwire
       F   C
It's a highwire
       F   C
It's a highwire
