Intro: A  G  D9/F#

A                              G     D9/F#
 Sometimes I feel like I'm on top of everything,
A                         G      D9/F#
 Standing high above the Center Ring

A                        G        D9/F#
 Waving slowly, looking this way, that way
A                                  G   D9/F#
 The lights so bright, I can't see any-thing

A                              G     D9/F#
 Sometimes I feel, like I'm on top of everything,
A                     G         D9/F#
 Stepping out onto a piece of string

A                         G        D9/F#
 Moving forward, leaning this way, that way
Bb                     F#              C#
 And there's no net at all if I should fall.

            G#m7          F#      C#
And there's no chance of turning back
      G#m7          F#          C#
And I don't want to come back down
            G#m7          F#      C#
And there's no chance of turning back
                  G#m7
I'd never live it down
         E                  ( A  G  D9/F# )
Standing back on the ground

A                              G      D9/F#
 Sometimes I feel, like I'm on top of everything,
A                      G       D9/F#
 Holding fast onto a flying swing
A                          G         D9/F#
 Pushing forward, pulling this way, that way
A                         G    D9/F#
 It's much harder than it seems

A                              G      D9/F#
 Sometimes I feel, like I'm on top of everything,
A                     G     D9/F#
 And I wonder why I'm bothering

A                         G        D9/F#
 Moving forward, leaning this way, that way
Bb                     F#                C#
 And there's no net at all, to catch my fall

            G#m7          F#      C#
And there's no chance of turning back
      G#m7          F#          C#
And I don't want to come back down
            G#m7          F#      C#
And there's no chance of turning back
                  G#m7
I'd never live it down
         E
Standing back on the ground

G                       E
 Praying hands start to reach and wring,
G                   Bm                      ( A  G  D9/F# )
 Everybody wants to mean something to someone

A                              G     D9/F#
 Sometimes I feel like I'm on top of everything,
A                     G         D9/F#
 Stepping out onto a piece of string

A                              G     D9/F#
 Sometimes I feel like I'm on top of everything,
A
 And it's higher than it seems.
