Woman On The Wheel Chords by Gretchen Peters

[F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] There's a man out here puts his head in the mouth of [F#] a crocodile
_ _ _ _ [B] Puts a whole thing in, takes it out, and gives the [F#] crowd a great big smile
_ _ And they walk away with their illusions of safety safely intact
_ _ And they tell their little white-eyed kids it's only an act
_ _ _ _ There's [B] a man out here throws knives at a wheel with [F#] a blindfold on
And _ [B] the wheel spins round and the knives bear down till [F#] they find their home
_ _ And [D#] I can feel the rush and the whoosh of every blade [F#] of steel
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ _
Cause I am the woman on the wheel
_ _ _ _ _ Sometimes I get lonely, sometimes I get scared, but most times, boy
_ _ [B] Sometimes I ask God, please God, show me what's behind that door
_ _ _ [D#m] As a God for Molly Hall and this was Let's Make [F#] a Deal _ _ _ _ _ _
[D#m] I am the [F#] woman on the wheel
_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ Had _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] a sweet little baby in Coeur d'Amene, he was an _ acrobat
_ _ Took [B] me out on a wire man, I never knew love could feel like that
_ _ But in the end he was a man who couldn't keep his feet on the ground too long
_ _ In [D#m] the end it's just another high wire act [F#] gone wrong
_ _ _ _ So it's on with the show and it's in in the clowns and the trapeze acts
_ And [B] it's more of the same and it's less of a [F#] game than a cold hard fact
_ _ [B]
Most times [F#] it's better not to ask myself how I feel
_ _ _ _ _ [C#] _
I'm just the woman [F#] on the wheel
_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D#m] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ _ _ Now I know what you're thinking as the knives fly by and they find their mark
_ _ You're [B] thinking one false move and it's a real bad day [F#] at the amused bar
_ _ You wouldn't want to be me but you need me just the same
To _ _ _ [D#]
remind you what you stand to lose and [F#] what you stand to gain
_ They say I got a death wish, yeah, but I don't think that's true
As _ [B] far as I can see, it's less about me [F#] and more about you
_ You [B] see it ain't your fears so much as what your [C#] fears [F#] reveal
_ _ I'm _ _
[B] _ _ _ just the woman on [F#] the wheel _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _
