my mind

With a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes

Oh but how can I sleep with your voice

in my head
D         A           D  
And an ocean between us and room in my bed

swing of things

         F#m          D            
When she glows in the dark

and I'm weak by the sight
         D                      A           D  
Of this breathtaking beauty in which I can hide
E7        F#m          D         A        Bm
There's a worldful out there of people I fear
          D                      
But given time 
      A                D
I'll get into the swing of things
    E7       F#m          D             
Yes when she glows in the dark 
     A            	       Bm
and I'm struck by the sight
  D 
I know that I'll need this 
    A          D 	E7 F#m D A Bm
for the rest of my life 
D A D   E7 F#m D A Bm   D A D
E7 F#m D A Bm     D A D   E7
F#m         D         A           Bm
What have I done what lies I have told
            D 
I've played games with the ones 
A          	        D
that rescued my soul
E7     F#m         D               
Have I come to the point 
A          	Bm
where I'm losing the grip
         D                 A       
Or is it still time to get into 
         D                 Bm
The swing of things
