Capo on 1st fret G D Life's a tightrope, Am Em And you're standing on one toe. G D Am Don't let the fear take hold of you, Em You're bound to fall to the ground below. G D Pick yourself up again, Am Over the edge again, Em Hold on to your hopes and dreams. G D When all seems to be lost, Am Don't start to count the costs, Em Just go and begin again. G D Am Em G D Am Em Tight rope walker, tight rope walker. G D Am Em The only thing I'm sure of is, to have no fear at all, G D Am Em Just go, keep on going on. G D Am Em And the only thing that's certain is sometimes you're bound to fall, G D Am Em Just go, keep on going on. G D When all you work for, Am Em Comes tumbling to the ground. G D Don't let the sadness fill your heart, Am Em Tomorrow may be a better day. G Lift your head up again, D You know you'll start again, Am Em No matter what may come of it. G You know there's more to life, D I'm sure that you'll survive, Am Em You know what you have to do. G D Am Em G D Am Em Tight rope walker, tight rope walker. G D Am Em The only thing I'm sure of is to have no fear at all, G D Am Em Just go, keep on going on. G D Am Em And the only thing that's certain is sometimes you're bound to fall, G D Am Em Just go keep, on going on. G D Am Em Who knows, who knows, who knows what may come tomorrow, G D Am Em Who knows, who knows, who knows, what tomorrow may bring. G D Am Em Who knows, who knows, who knows what may come tomorrow, G D Am Em Who knows, who knows, who knows, what tomorrow may bring. G D Am Em The only thing I'm sure of is to have no fear at all, G D Am Em Just go, keep on going on, G D Am Em And the only thing that's certain is sometimes you're bound to fall, G D Am Em Just go, keep on going on x2 *you can add a G strum at the end (it sounds nice)
