D                   A                             Em                    G         A
Forward momentum; reverse not withstanding, while balancing (barely) on high wire thread
D                              A
Don'™t drive me to panic, don't kill off old motions
    Em                             G          A
The family you'€™re left with is the family you get

[Bridge]
    Em                     G
All alone at the bottom, rotation continues
    Em                    G            A
You look like a wreck (it takes one to know one)

[Chorus]
D                   A                          Em                    G         A
Forward momentum; reverse not demanding, while balancing (barely) on tottering links
      D                     A
Don't cry me a river. Don't stop when I'€™m dead
    Em                     G          A
The family you make is the family you get

[Outro]
    Em                     G
All alone at the bottom, rotation continues
       Em                      G        A
If you aim for the desert, you end up inside of a box
