Balance Beam Tab par Blue October

Intro: G  D2  C  Em   D (x2)

                         G       
I haven't been quite the same.
D2           C          Em                      D   
So sure the story of my life will never change.
                G 
But in a bright eyed way.
D2             C            
Rinsed out the soap in my eyes 
            Em                           D 
and wrote a song that I'm about to sing.
            G           D2  C      Em                D
Cause it's about a girl     that I hardley even know.
           G                      D2  C     
So this is not another love song. 
        Em
Just a list of thing that I should know
D
and everyone should know.

Chorus
G 
(One) You got to take it kind of slowly
C 
(Two) You got to hurry up and make your move.
G                                             D   C 
(Three) You got to tell her that she's pretty.
G 
(Four) You got to be the perfect gentleman 
C 
You shake the wall you got to make it bend.
G                        D 
You got to show her that she's the balance beam

and I keep falling all around her fairy tale.


(Repeat)

We took a walk in the rain 
I suggested, she confessed there's a park nearby
to cast that shame.
Stay cool but I'm getting like a school boy.
You got to handle with care this is not a toy.
And gradually we touched.
Although our close were wet we sat and smiled
I never thought I'd smiled so much
The first kiss always says the most.
