Through the wire

Through the wire

Through the wire

She's not in a disguise

But I can't hold you, too close now

Through the wire, through the wire

What a feeling to be right here beside you now
D
Holding you in my arms
Em
When the air ran out and we both started running wild

The sky fell down

But you've got stars when you rise
D
And I've got something
Em
What a feeling to be a king beside you, somehow
C
I wish I could be there now

G
What a feeling to be right here beside you now
D
Holding you in my arms
Em
When the air ran out
C
And we both started running wild

The sky fell down
D
But you've got stars  when you rise
Em
And I've got something 
C
What a feeling to be a king beside you, somehow
I wish I could be there now

Whatever chains are holding you back
D
Holding you back
Em
Don't let 'em tie you down

Whatever chains are holding you back
Holding you back
Tell me you believe in that

The sky fell down
But you've got stars, they're in your eyes
And I've got something missing tonight
What a feeling to be a king beside you, somehow
I wish I could be there now
