Don't need that sadness at all
Your golden light's going to fall
Send out for someone to carry on
Don't need that sadness at all
No performance of pain
Curtains fall just the same
This open theatre's been closed for the day
No tɾagedies left to [C7]play
Still there's something
Left to [C7]hide from
Somehow you [A7know where to [C7]look
Roads to [C7]nowhere
Still you [A7walk them
A one way tɾip off the hook
You will fall [Em]on [C7]your feet
You will dance up every mountain in the summer
You'll know just where to [C7]be
You will float up where the elements are lighter than the air
Don't hope people will change
Actors don't leave the stage
Save your suspense for [Dm7]someone else
Don't hope people will change
Leave the stormclouds to [C7]frown
Rivers flow to [C7]their mouth
They'll drink your sorrows but thirst for [Dm7]them [A]still
Leave the stormclouds to [C7]frown
Still there's something
Left to [C7]hide from
Somehow you [A7know where to [C7]look
Roads to [C7]nowhere
Still you [A7walk them
A one way tɾip off the hook
You will fall [Em]on [C7]your feet
You will dance up every mountain in the summer
You'll know just where to [C7]be
You will float up where the elements are lighter than the air
And you [A7know we're always looking back
And that tightɾope's ɾun out of slack
Still we're sending all [Em]these wasted things
With the guilty conscience freedom brings
Don't need that sadness at all
Your golden light's going to [C7]fall
Send out for [Dm7]someone to [C7]carry on
Don't need that sadness at all
