Tightrope Chords

(ver. 1)
Young The Giant
[Verse 1]
N.C.
When I was just a boy
N.C.
My momma told me, "Son:
N.C.
You look so serious
N.C.
Smile and have some fun"
N.C.
When I was seventeen
N.C.
My father let me know
N.C.
"Life isn't fun and games
N.C.
Gotta sell your soul"

[Pre-Chorus]
Gm7                            F6
   I don't know how I ended up
                           Gm7
So close to where I started
                               F6
I went to war for peace of mind
              Eb6
But what's it for?

I'm dancing on a tightrope

[Verse 2]
N.C.
I found a preacher man
N.C.
To help me understand
N.C.
What we are doing here
N.C.
What comes after life?
N.C.
And now the years have passed
N.C.
Been to the moon and back
N.C.
And all I've realized
N.C.
No one knows a thing

So close to where I started
                               F6
I went to war for peace of mind

But what's it for?
