D A G Carefully cut the wire and wait. D A G Life is a series of narrow escapes. D A chain reaction, G A loose thread that we must pull. D The birth of religion G In the challenge of the unknown. D But all desperation G Leads to a fork in the road - A We live for understanding D Or for control. G A G D So very carefully we'll cut the wire and wait.

G If there's one thing we've learned A G A As our pulse returns G A D A Timing is everything D A Is everything D A D A If life is a series of narrow escapes, D We're shifting our weight A D A In this tightrope ballet. D A We're down to the wire D A We're down to the wire D A We're down to the wire D A D We're down to the wire
