Bm A* C#* X2

Bm             A*                C#*
I traveled though the atmosphere

Bm               A*                 C#*
as a wall of feedback climbed

Bm                C#*              Bm         C#*
The pegs were gold, the band was old,

F#                    Bm         A*   C#*
they played in half time

Bm                A*                C#*
Now every dream gets whittled down

Bm           A*                    C#*
just like every fool gets wise

You will never reap of any seed

F#
deprived of sunlight

Bm A* C#* X2

G                              Bm
So I have become the Middleman

G                            Bm
The gray areas are mine

D    G                 F#        Bm
The in-between, the absentee

F#                  Bm          A*    C#*
Is a beautiful disguise

Bm                 A*              C#*
So I keep my footlights shining bright

just like I keep my exits wide

Bm               C#*              Bm       C#*
'Cause I never know when it's time to go,

F#               Bm                A*    C#*
it's too crowded now inside

Bm                  A*                   C#*
The dead can hide beneath the ground

Bm               A*                  C#*
and the birds can always fly

Bm              C#*          Bm           C#*
But the rest of us do what we must

F#
in constant compromise

Bm A* C#* X2

So I have become the Middleman

G                             Bm
The gray areas are fine

D   G               F#         Bm
The "I don't know," the "maybe so"

F#
Is the only real

F#
Is the only true

F#
Is the only real

Bm A* C#*
