Lyrics:

Verse 1:

A

Well the road can be a circus,a death defying act

E

But the clowns don't come around no more since the monkeys off my back

A

I stand here on the stage,as the house lights fade to black

E A

Your love helps me forget,i'm working without a net





Chorus:

ADA

Up on the high wire,i hear the crowd begin to call

DE

Some want you to fly,some want to see you fall

A

Now and then i stumble,but i ain't fallen yet

E A

Your love helps me forget,i'm working without a net





Verse 2:

A

I used to depend on some things i did not need

E

I leaned on some crutches that kept me off my feet



Standing here without them now,well it scares me half to death

E A

Your love helps me forget,i'm working without a net





Chorus(x2).
