Capo On 3, have fun!
VERSE:
G C Em G
oh my child is an acrobat
C Em G
and he walks upon the wires
C Em G
knowing well that he might fall
C Em G
still he climbs up higher
CHORUS:
C G C G
if he should slip he will surely die
C Em C G
and his body will break and his soul will fly
C G C G
into the night where the spirit scream
C Em C G
he will leave this world and become a dream
G C Em G
oh my father was a sailor
C Em G
and he lived upon the waters
C Em G
knowing well that he might drown
C Em G
he sailed beyond the harbor

C G C G
if he should slip he will surely die
C Em C G
and his body will sink and his soul will fly
C G C G
into the night where the spirits scream
C Em C G
he will leave this world and become a dream
G C
nothing will change nothing will change
G C Em
well that's how it goes but nothing will change
G C Em G
oh my love she is my saving grace
C Em G
she holds me through the winter
C Em G
knowing well that I will leave
C Em G
Still she holds me closer
C G C G
if my heart should break I will surely die
C Em C G
and my blood will float and my soul will fly
C G C G
into the night where the spirit screams
C Em C G
I will leave this world and become a dream
