A
You'll never have to hear the word "no"
If you keep all your friends on the payroll
F#m
The non-disclosure pages signed
Your secret's safe between those lines

The scaffolding will cheer and console you
But remember what your mother told you
That good help is so hard to find
For people who are so refined

Bm
You're trying to turn into the skid
                       D E
In this never-ending grid

Chorus:
          F#m     E   D  A
There's a long, slow fade
     F#m E      D  A
To a darkened stage
      F#m   E   D A
And I hear you say
        F#m        E    D  A
"Only a fool gives it away"
       Bm
Only a fool would give
        D
Only a fool gives it away

You said you wanna stake out your claim
High above the city from where you came
Don't you know the air's so thin?
It starves the brain of oxygen

I know it's such a dangerous place
For there are more ascensions than there is space
Angels causing accidents
The camera phones'll document

But if I start to levitate
Pull me down with all your weight

Chorus

Bm
You're trying to turn into the skid
                      F#m
In this never-ending grid
Bm
But you should know it's not ideal
                           D E
All those hands upon the wheel

Chorus:
There's a long, slow fade
To a darkened stage
And I hear you say
"Only a fool gives it away"
There's a long, slow fade
To a darkened stage
And I hear you say
"Only a fool gives it away"
Only a fool would give
Only a fool would give
Only a fool gives this away
