Mandolin Orange That Wrecking Ball Lyrics

I've taken to leaning, these past few days
a little too heavy on my walking cane
cause I'm afraid shes's swinging my way
that wrecking ball.
Now with all my ducks in a row
with one pull I could let 'em go
not to lose, just to show I
could catch them all.
But every man bears a burden, his own beast by the horns
that he hides from the world when he's young and strong
looking over his shoulder, half tethered and torn,
still standing tall.
But every year rolls on like a runaway train
every beast grows stronger as the pendulum swings
to and fro, and on she goes
that wrecking ball.
(Instrumental break) Play verse chords
I've just seen that rock of ages
I've just held my saviors hands
we danced on the water with my head on her shoulder
she swore to never let me fall.
And wouldn't time seem so kindly
if every bright eyed girl could be
more like you and shelter me
from that wrecking ball
that wrecking ball
