 F#m          A                                E5                  B7
Tongue tied, talking to my feet, when there’s nothing better than self-defeat
  F#m           A                           E5                 B7
I stop, stall, try to stand tall,  when whatever I say means nothing at all
   E7                                D                               E7
I walk, through all the steps in my head,  it made more sense in my head,
                    D           E7        F#m              A
Plain and simple I can’t keep climbing, I try to find the words
                   B7          F#m             A                  B7
But they won’t surrender, so I lie to you and say that I don’t remember

                     E5                         D
Singing like a hurricane, dancing like Fred Astaire,
                           E5                               F#m      A   B7
Walking like a young John Wayne,  talking like I’m falling downstairs
                          F#m      A   B7
Talking like I’m falling downstairs

  F#m       A                           E5                         B7
Stu-tter,  mutter to myself,  that you can’t quote something from someone else
  F#m              A                           E5
I duck – swerve,  lose my nerve,  it‘s on the tip of my tongue
         B7                        E7                                 D
So just give me the word and I’ll walk,  through all the steps in my head
                          E7                        D           E7
It made more sense in my head,  plain and simple I can’t keep climbing -
   F#m             A                       B7
I try to find the words but they won’t surrender
     F#m             A                  B7
So I lie to you and say that I don’t remember…

                     E5                         D
Singing like a hurricane, dancing like Fred Astaire,
                           E5
Walking like a young John Wayne,  talking like I’m falling down
                          F#m      A   B7
Talking like I’m falling downstairs
                          F#m      A   B7
Talking like I’m falling downstairs

Walking like a young John Wayne,  talking like I’m falling down
