Lyrics

Through the wire, through the (Em)wire, through the wire, I’m watch ing her like dance, i dress is catch ing the (Am)light.

In her eyes there’s no (Em)lies, am no lies, late?

(F)there’s no ques tion, she’s not in a dis (F)guise.

With no way (G)out and a long way (F)down, ev ’ry bod y (G)needs some one a (F)round.

But I can’t (Gsus)hold you too close (F)now, through the wire, through the (G)wire.

What a feel ing to (Em)be right here be (Fmaj7)side you now,

(G)hold ing you in my (Am)arms.

When the air ran (Em)out and we both start ed (Fmaj7)run ning wild, the (G)sky fell down.

But (Am)you’ve got stars there in (Em7)your eyes

and (F)I’ve got some thing (G)miss ing to night.

What a feel ing to (Em)be a king be (Fmaj7)side you, some how, I (G)wish I could be there (F)now.

Through the wire, through the (Em)wire, through the wire, I’m watch ing you like this, i mag in ing you’re the (Am)mine.

It’s too late, it’s too (Em)late, am I too late?

(F)Tell me now, am I run ning out of (F)time?

With no way (G)out and a long way (F)down, ev ’ry bod y (G)needs some one a (F)round.

But I can’t (Gsus)hold you too close (F)now, through the wire, through the (G)wire.

What a feel ing to (Em)be right here be (Fmaj7)side you now,

(G)hold ing you in my (Am)arms.

When the air ran (Em)out and we both start ed (Fmaj7)run ning wild, the (G)sky fell down.
