[Verse 1]
G                      D                       Em
Some people long for a life that is simple and planned
C
Tied with a ribbon
G                          D                           Em
Some people won't sail the sea 'cause they're safer on land
C
To follow what's written
    D          G          C      D
But I'd follow you to the great unknown
D        Em       C        D
Off to a world we call our own
 
[Chorus]
G
Hand in my hand
       D                     Em
And we promised to never let go
      C
We're walking the tightrope
G
High in the sky
       D                        Em
We can see the whole world down below
      C
We're walking the tightrope
      Em          C        G            D
Never sure, never know how far we could fall
         G
But it's all an adventure
     D                         Em
That comes with a breathtaking view
C
Walking the tightrope
 
[Post-Chorus]
     G    D   G    D   C
With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
     G    D    G    D   C
With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
     D
With you
 
[Verse 2]
G                          D                       Em
Mountains and valleys, and all that will come in between
C
Desert and ocean
G                      D                      Em
You pulled me in and together we're lost in a dream
C
Always in motion
   D         G           C      D
So I risk it all just to be with you
    D         Em           C       D
And I risk it all for this life we choose
 
[Chorus]
G
Hand in my hand
        D                     Em
And you promised to never let go
      C
We're walking the tightrope
G
High in the sky
       D                        Em
We can see the whole world down below
      C
We're walking the tightrope
Em                   C                    G          D
Never sure, will you catch me if I should fall?
G
Well, it's all an adventure
     D                         Em
That comes with a breathtaking view
C
Walking the tightrope
 
[Post-Chorus]
     G    D    G    D   C
With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
     G    D    G    D   C
With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
     D
With you
     G    B    C    D    E    D
With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
 
[Outro]
N.C
With you, ooh-ooh-ooh

WELL DONE! Yours is definitely the closest to the original & the one I'll be using since I am transposing for piano. Since I sing & accompany myself, it makes it SO much easier to have accurate chord charts to follow. 😉 My only critique is a tweak of a few chords. They sounded OK, but these fill it out much nicer - especially for piano. The original key is A, so [C#7>B7] and [Bm>Am]. Thanks for putting in the work! 😊❤
