Intro
This is the story on how we lived
The glory of what we did
It started when we were kids
With music up in our heads
She said
(Verse 1)
I've been out on the edge
Breathin a little bit of fresh air
Big dreams, I took a chance
Held out for everything i've got here
(Pre Chorus)
I've been feeling this life's a circus
Hangin on without a fear
(CHorus)
Livin on a high wire
Runnin through a wildfire
You can't shake me, I'm not goin nowhere
Walkin on a tight rope
No net, high hopes
Step back, I'm gonna make it over
Na na na na na na na
Na na livin on a high wire
Na na na na na na na
Na na livin on a high wire
This is the story of how we lived
The glory of what we did
It started when we were kids
With music up in our heads
She said
(Verse 2: Same as Verse 1)
Big top, turnin around, no clowns
Im runnin as I hit the ground
Front row, big show is sold out
So I'm ready for the crowd roar, lets go
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
Bridge
When it comes to the beat
Seeing that the heads are moving
Move off your seat
Achievement is what we're really doing
Freedom of speech
I'm in it just to win it
I'm springin' and I can see it
In the end that you can be it
'Cause it's patience, it's statements
Famous greatness
Movin' 'til you make it through
And maybe you can make it too
(No guitar until chords start again)
Livin on a high wire
Can't shake me I'm not goin nowhere
Walking a tight rope no net high hopes
Step back I'm gonna make it over
Na na na na na na na
Na na livin on a high wire
Na na na na na na na
Na na livin on a high wire (yeah yeah)
Na na na na na na na
Na na livin on a high wire
