Intro : 
G Em Am

G
 i keep trynna fit your mold
but it ain't workin
Em             Am
 i don't wanna wear a mask
inside your circus
G
 all the lines we've crossed
make us both uncertain
Em              Am
 what we're juggling is underneath
the surface

G
 paint a smile like a clown n show no tears
Em         Am
 flares up and we're waiting now
the smokes clear
G                                  Em Am
 being so high up was my worst fear

Reff :
                        G
now you got me tumbling down..
from this tightrope
         Em                     Am
ain't no telling how much lower i might go..
         G
spin me around.. on your pedestal
           Em
you're the star of the show
    Am
i'm the spectacle..

      G
can't tell how many hoops
i've jumped through
Em             Am
how many tricks must i do
    G
i'm losing my balance to get to you
        Em         Am
on this tight rope.. (on this tight rope)

Int. 
G Em Am

G
 being high means nothing
when you crash down
Em           Am
 hard headed never knew when to back down
G
 use to be love but it's all just an act now
Em               Am
 second guessing everything in our past now

G
 paint a smile like a clown n show no tears
Em         Am
 flares up and we're waiting now
the smokes clear
G                                  Em Am
 being so high up was my worst fear

Reff :
                        G
now you got me tumbling down..
from this tightrope
         Em                     Am

           Em
you're the star of the show
    Am

      G

Outro : 
G Em Am
G Em Am 
G
              I keep tryna fit your mold but it ain't working
I don't wanna wear a mask inside your circus
All the lines we've crossed make us both uncertain
What we're juggling is underneath the surface

Paint a smile like a clown and show no tears
Flares up and we're waiting, now the smoke's clear
Being so high up was my worst fear

Now you got me tumbling down from this tightrope
Ain't no telling how much lower I might go
Spin me around on your pedestal
You're the star of the show, I'm the spectacle
Can't tell how many hoops I've jumped through
How many tricks must I do?
I'm losing my balance to get to you
On this tight rope

Being high means nothing when you crash down
Hard-headed, never knew when to back down
Use to be love but it's all just an act now
Second-guessing everything in our past now

Paint a smile like a clown and show no tears
Flares up and we're waiting, now the smoke's clear
Being so high up was my worst fear

Now you got me tumbling down from this tightrope
Ain't no telling how much lower I might go
Spin me around on your pedestal
You're the star of the show, I'm the spectacle
Can't tell how many hoops I've jumped through
How many tricks must I do?
I'm losing my balance to get to you
On this tight rope
