Tightrope......ELO

They say some days you're gonna win,
They say some days you're gonna lose.
I tell you I got news for you
Your losin' all the time you never win
If you believe that's how it's gonna be I'd better put you down
Get off your tightrope up there come down on
The ground you gotta save me now,
You better turn around.
When I looked around, I was heading down.
Won't somebody throw me down a line.

They say some days you gotta give--
They say some days you gotta take--
If that's the way it's gotta be,
Roll it over and you will see.
The city streets are full of people going nowhere making time.
The change from night to day is really only hours,
It's just along the line can't you see the sign
When I looked around, I was heading down,
Won't somebody throw me down a line.

I want to look you straight in the eye,
I want to tell you how I really feel,
I can feel the wheels turnin' round,
Won't somebody throw me down a line
The city streets are full of people going nowhere making time,
The change from night to day is really only hours
It's just along the line, can't you see the sign
When I closed my eyes, I was so surprised
Somebody had thrown me down the line--stopped me drownin'
Somebody had thrown me down the line

Jeff Lynne is without question a genius.

This man is one of the last musical genius we have, he is such a humble guy and a legend in his own right. His music will be around for many many years!

Loved ELO since my brother introduced me to their music in 1972. Absolute with the other original band members. Keep going Jeff. You're a musical legend!!

The intro of this song would have to be my favourite intro of a song and album ever! I love the outro too.

In 1977 I was in high school we had to write a journal a pick a song that's related to your life, I picked this song, my mom found my journal and threw it away, I was trying to get help for what was going on at home, I didn't ever get help, but thank God I'm grown, boone can hurt me anymore, God is Good, If your young and going through people hurting you, don't give up, It may not seem like it but God will get you through. Gods Speed, Brothers And Sisters, never Stop Loving.

What an incredible album 'A New World Record' is. Beginning with the mesmerizing intro of 'Tightrope', and ending with the hauntingly beautiful outro of 'Shangri-La'. 'A New World Record' will always be Jeff Lynne's first 'Masterpiece' to me.

First track on the first album I ever bought. I used to drive my family mad playing this album day after day. How I miss those vinyl days watching the LP going round with the wonderfully warm sounds coming out of my red Dansette record player.

I saw ELO in nyc back in 2016. I sat next to Bruce Willis and we had a blast. This was the song they opened up with. It’s a moment I’ll never forget. ELO is my favorite band ❤

I saw them in concert in 1976
I was 19 years old and had just moved to the Los Angeles area from Michigan
Universal city amphitheater in universal city. It’s one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to in my life and I’ve been the more than I can remember.❤🎉🎉🎉
