    [Intro]
    Am Em Am Em Am Em Am C G D
    [Verse]
    Am Em Am Em
    Welcome stranger to the show
    Am Em Am C G D Am
    I'm the one who should be ly-ing low
    Em Am Em
    Saw the knives out, turned my back
    Am Em
    Heard the train coming
    Am C G D F
    stayed right on that track
    [Chorus]
    F C
    In the middle, in the middle
    Em F G
    In the middle of a dream
    Am Em F C
    I lost my shirt, I pawned my rings
    G D Am Em
    I've done all the dumb things
    Am Em Am Em Am C G D
    [Verse 2]
    Am Em Am Em
    Caught the fever, heard the tune
    Am Em Am C G D Am
    Thought I loved her, hung my heart on the moon
    Em Am Em
    Started howling, made no sense
    Am Em Am C G D F
    Thought my friends would rush to my defence
    [Chorus]
    F C
    In the middle, in the middle
    Em F G
    In the middle of a dream
    Am Em F C
    I lost my shirt, I pawned my rings
    G D Am Em
    I've done all the dumb things
    [Solo]
    Am Em Am Em Am C G D
    F C Em F G Am Em F C G D
    Am Em Am Em Am Em Am C G D
    [Verse 3]
    Am Em Am Em
    And I get all your good advice
    Am Em Am C G D Am
    Never stops me from going through these things twice
    Em Am Em
    I see the knives out, I turn my back
    Am Em Am C G D F
    I hear the train coming, I stay right on that track
    [Chorus 2]
    F C
    In the middle, in the middle
    Em F G
    In the middle of a dream
    Am Em F C
    I lost my shirt, I pawned my rings
    G D Am Em
    I've done all the dumb things,
    Am Em F C
    I melted wax to fix my wings
    G D Am Em
    I've done all the dumb things,
    Am Em F C
    Yeah I threw my hat into the ring
    G D Am Em
    I've done all the dumb things,
    Am Em F C
    Well I thought that I just had to sing
    G D Am Em
    I've done all the dumb things
    [Outro]
    Am Em Am Em Am C G D
    (Ends with single strum of Am)

More Than Tabs

Hear every part, read it in the notation you prefer, and practise it at your own tempo

Audio Playback

Play the whole score back, or step through it note by note. Every track is synthesised from its own instrument, so a drum line sounds like drums and a piano part sounds like a piano.

Dual Notation

Switch any track between tablature, standard notation and note names — or show them stacked, aligned bar for bar. The same score, in whichever language you read fastest.

Practice Tools

Slow the tempo until a passage sits under your fingers, set the play range to loop the bar you keep missing, and mute the tracks you want to play yourself.
