Key: G

Introduction:

   G                                                                                         Am 
Tongue tied, talking to my feet, when there's nothing better than self defeat
         G                                                                           Am 
I stop, stall, try to stand tall,   when whatever I say means nothing at all
       D                                                               C                                                             D 
I walk, through all the steps in my head,   it made more sense in my head
                                         C 
Plain and simple I can't keep climbing
       Em                                                                           Am 
I try to find the words but they won't surrender
             Em                                                               Am 
So I lie to you and say that I don't remember
                                           D                                                     C 
Singing like a hurricane,   dancing like Fred Astaire,
                                                         D                                                                                       Em 
Walking like a young John Wayne,   I'm talking like I'm falling downstairs,
     Am                                                                     Em       Am 
              Talking like I'm falling downstairs
     G                                                                       Am 
Stut-ter,   mutter to myself,   that you can't quote something from someone else
       G                                                                                     Am 
I duck - swerve,   lose my nerve,   it's on the tip of my tongue
                                                                       D                                                                 C 
So just give me the word and I'll walk, through all the steps in my head
                                                       D                                               C 
It made more sense in my head,   plain and simple I can't keep climbing
       Em                                                                           Am 
I try to find the words but they won't surrender
             Em                                                               Am 
So I lie to you and say that I don't remember
                                           D                                                     C 
Singing like a hurricane,   dancing like Fred Astaire,
                                                         D                                                                     C 
Walking like a young John Wayne,   I'm talking like I'm falling down
                                                                 Em     Am                                                               Em       Am 
Talking like I'm falling downstairs,       talking like I'm falling downstairs
                                           D                                                     C 
Singing like a hurricane,   dancing like Fred Astaire,
