Bm                        D        E   Bm D E
They say the world's an eventful place
Bm                       D        E Bm D E
You give me news I dont want to know
Bm           F#m          G
You say that I should care
A        Bm  D E Bm D E
That I should speak my mind

F#m        D              A            Bm
Oh but how can I speak with the world rushing by
D                      A          D
With a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes
E7        F#m         D        A          Bm
Oh have I come to the point of no turning back
D                        A         Bm    D E Bm D E
Or is it still time to get into the swing of things

Bm D E Bm D E

Let us walk through this windless city
I'll go on till the winter gets me
Sleep you wrote sleep my dear
In a letter somewhere

Oh but how can I sleep with your voice in my head
And an ocean between us and room in my bed
Oh have I come to the point where I'm losing the grip
Or is there still time to get into the swing of things.

D E
F#m           D
When she glows in the dark
A           Bm
And I'm weak by the sight
D
Of this breathtaking beauty
A          D
In which I can hide
E7        F#m           D
There's a worldful out there
A        Bm
Of people I fear
D                     A         Bm
But given time I'll get into the swing of things
E7       F#m           D
Yes when she glows in the dark
A            Bm
And I'm struck by the sight
D                                A          D E7
I know that I'll need this for the rest of my life

F#m D A Bm D A D
E7 F#m D A Bm
D A Bm E7 F#m D
A Bm D A D E7

What have I done, what lies I have told
I've played games with the ones
That rescued my soul
Have I come to the point where I'm losing the grip
Or is it still time to get into the
Bm
Swing of things
