Tightrope Tab

by Leon Russell


intro is  

I"m up on a Tightwire
           
one side"s ice and one is fire
                               
It"s a circus game withg you and me

Im up on the tightrope
          
one sides hate and one is hope
                                    
but the top hat on my head is all you see
                                
and the wire seems to be the only place for me
                        
a comedy of errors and im falling
                           
like a rubber neck giraffe you look into my past
                             
well maybe you just to blind to see

im up in the spotlight
            
oh does it feel right
                             
oh the altitude really gets to me


Im up in the tight wire
           
flanked by life and the funeralpryre
                            
putting on a show for you too see B

solo     
                            
like a rubber neck giraffer you look into my past
                              
well maybe your just to blind to see

im up on the spotlight
           
oh does it feel right
       
oh the altitude seems to get to me

im up on a tightwire
