Laughing in a crown of jewels, numbness from a scepter's wound
D5 D7sus Em7 Am4-G/D - D5Toss and turn, I spin and learn, catch yourself before you burn
D5 D7sus Em7 Am4-G/D-D5Jokers dance before the king, jangling beads, a silver ring
Close your eyes and bare the sound, jumping up, falling down
Falling, falling, falling, falling down
A C(9) D Am(4) - G/D - D5Look yourself in the eye before you drown
Royal rebels discover you; trust? you turn, there is no truth
And circle, circle, why are you scared, why a smile instead of tears?
I'm gulping smoke, I fade away, figures floating down to lay
Meet the joker and the thief, the king and queen, but no relief
Falling, falling, falling, falling down
Look yourself in the eye before you drown
Falling, falling, falling, Falling down
(The king is in his counting house, counting out his money)
Look yourself in the eye before you drown
(The queen is in her parlor eating bread and honey)
[Guitar solo: same chords as verse]
I cross myself before I die, and the leaping man, he asked me why
Well your rhythm is off, I reply, Now you must dance the dance that you imply
D5 D7sus Em7 D5
Your actions will follow you full circle round, your actions will follow...
Your actions will follow you full circle round, your actions will follow...
D5 D7sus Em7 D5Your actions will follow you full circle round, your actions will follow...
D5 D7sus Em7Your actions will follow you full circle round, the higher the leap
I said, the harder the ground
