D# He swivels his head F Tears his eyes from the screen D# F As his past puts him back in Atlantic City There's not even a demon in Heaven or Hell Is it all just human disguise? As I walk down the aisle Chorus: D# And I'm gone, gone, gone [Gone, gone, gone spinning slack through reality] F Now I'm older than movies [Dance my way, falling up through the years] D# Let me dance away [Until I swivel back round then I fly, fly, fly] F Now I'm wiser than dreams [Losing breath underwater well I'm gone, gone, gone] D# Let me fly, fly, fly [Spin slack through reality] F While I'm touching tomorrow [Dance my way, falling up through the years] D# And I know who's there [Until I swivel back round then I fly, fly, fly] [Losing breath underwater when I'm gone, gone, gone] F When silhouettes fall [Spinning slack through reality] G# And I'm gone Cm Like I'm dancing on angels F# F And I'm gone through the crack in the past D# F Like a dead man walking Like a dead man walking Three old men dancing under her lamp lights Shaking their sex in the bones And the boys that we were An alien nation in therapy Sliding naked, anew Like a bad tempered child On the rain slicked streets Chorus: And I'm gone, gone, gone [Gone, gone, gone spinning slack through reality] Now I'm older than movies [Dance my way, falling up through the years] Let me dance away [Until I swivel back round then I fly, fly, fly] Now I'm wiser than dreams [Losing breath underwater well I'm gone, gone, gone] Let me fly, fly, fly [Spin slack through reality] While I'm touching tomorrow [Dance my way, falling up through the years] And I know who's there [Until I swivel back round then I fly, fly, fly] [Losing breath underwater when I'm gone, gone, gone] When silhouettes fall [Spinning slack through reality] And I'm gone Like I'm dancing on angels And I'm gone through the crack in the past Like a dead man walking Like a dead man walking Like a dead man Like a dead man walking Chorus: And I'm gone, gone, gone [Gone, gone, gone spinning slack through reality] [Dance my way, falling up through the years] Let me dance, dance, dance [Until I swivel back round then I fly, fly, fly] And I'm gone [Losing breath underwater well I'm gone, gone, gone] Let me dance, dance, dance And I'm gone Like I'm dancing on angels And I'm gone through the crack in the past And I'm gone Like I'm dancing on angels And I'm gone through the crack in the past Like a dead man walking Like a dead man walking Like a dead man | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsCm D# F F# G# Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
