[Intro] G  C  Em  D
 
[Primeira Parte]
G                      C7M
You call it bright  and I call it simple
Em                   D         C
And somewhere in the middle is truth
G                       C7M
And you see the hill  and I see the castle
    Em               D       A       C
Our front that was united is doomed  ooh

[Refrão]

G             C                 G           D
You call this brick and mortar  I call this sacred skin
G                  C           Em         D
You see the figure skater  and I fear the ice is thin
G                C              G           D
And the light is all around us  but when we spar  it's dim
G                C              Em              D   G  C  Em  D
We're right here in the middle  missing the miracle
 
[Segunda Parte]

G                     C
You see the cloud and I see the lining
    Em               D         C
And somewhere in the middle is sun
    G                           C
And you say it's greatness" and I say bad timing
   Em                 D              A    C
And when we leave the ring  no one's won  ooh
 
[Terceira Parte]

G        C            G              D
I go for the jugular  you knock 'til you get in
G                      C           Em         D
You hold the loud and raucous  and I hear the dropping pin
     G           C                G         D
And you run all front and center  I whisper paper thin
G                C              Em              D
We're right here in the middle  missing the miracle
 
[Refrão]

C               Em
The winter gets long
               D
The rapids get white
                 Am               C   G
And what doesn't kill us turns to grey
 
G             C                 G           D
You call this brick and mortar  I call this sacred skin
G                  C           Em         D
You see the figure skater  and I fear the ice is thin
G                C              G           D
And the light is all around us  but when we spar  it's dim
G                C              Em              D   G  C
We're right here in the middle  missing the miracle

Em              D    G            C
Missing the miracle (the light is all around us)
Em              D    G            C
Missing the miracle (the light is all around us)
Em              D
Missing the miracle
