 The E and D chords that are used in this song are different from
 the standard E and D chords.
 You can play this song with the standard chords so I'll leave
 that up to you.
 
 INTRO:
 
 E 
  
 VERSE 1:
 
 E                         
 Should have talked it over
 E                             
 Should have thought it through
 E                           
 I think I might have bit off
 E                              
 A little more than I could chew
 D                          
 Well, I have got to get out
 A                          
 From underneath this weight
 E                    
 Or it's gonna kill me
 
 VERSE 2:
 
 But the shining of the silver
 The glimmer of the gold
 Kept giving me a fever
 But left me feeling cold
 I'm right back in the middle
 And if I don't come out soon
 Come in and get me
 
 1ST BRIDGE:
 
 G                     D                
 'Cause I keep slaying all these dragons
 E               
 More keep coming
 G                  D                    
 And I keep praying for this fight to end
 
 CHORUS:
 
 E       Bm       
 Uh, oh, here I go
 D                            E             
 Wading through a lot of this stuff you know
 Bm                        D              E   
 Juggling it all while I'm balancing on a wire
 E          Bm          
 Slow down, I have found
 D                       E          
 Seems that every time I turn around
 Bm                           D                   E   
 Got one foot in the muck and another foot in the mire
 Bm                     D           
 Well, I'm scaling down pulling back
        Bm D E 
 Got to try
 E (cont.)
 To simplify
 
 SOLO:
 
 E Bm D E Bm D E 
        
 VERSE 3:
 
 I put my golden ring on
 Unseen I went down where
 War and peace collided
 Inside the dragon's lair
 When pleasure is your master
 Convenience is your king
 Your heart's divided
 
 2ND BRIDGE:
 I keep weighing
 All these options
 More keep a coming
 I keep straying
 From the way I'm told
 
 Repeat CHORUS and SOLO

 NOTE: Before playing this part of the song I suggest that you listen very
 closely to how Wes King does it. By doing that you will be able to tell
 how fast it is played, etc.
 
 Then repeat CHORUS 4x.
