[Verse]
Welcome strang
er to the show
I'm the one wh
o should be ly
-ing low
Saw the knives
out, turned m
y back
Heard the trai
n coming
stayed right o
n that track
[Chorus]
In the middle,
in the middle
In the middle
of a dream
I lost my shir
t, I pawned my
rings
I've done all
the dumb thing

[Verse 2]
- Same Progression as Verse 1
Caught the fever, heard the tune
Thought I loved her, hung my heart on the moon
Started howling, made no sense
Thought my friends would rush to my defence
[Verse 3]
- Same Progression as Verse 1
And I get all your good advice
Never stops me from going through these things twice
I see the knives out, I turn my back
I hear the train coming, I stay right on that track
[Verse 4]
I melted wax t
o fix my wings
I threw my hat
into the ring
I thought that
I just had to
sing
I've done all
the dumb thing
s
[Outro]
Ends with sing
le strum of Am
Enjoy!
