E                            F          E             F
While the sun hangs in the sky and the desert has sand
E                             F       E           F
While the waves crash in the sea and meet the land
G#                            A G#                A G#
While there's a wind and the stars and the rainbow
G#                            A      G#
Till the mountains crumble into the plain

Chorus:
C#                     B   F#
Oh yes we'll keep on tryin'
C#                  E B
Tread that fine line
F#                 B    F#   G#
Oh we'll keep on tryin' yeah
G#
Just passing our time
      F
While we live according to race, colour or creed
While we rule by blind madness and pure greed
Our lives dictated by tradition, superstition, false religion
G#                A   G# A   G#
Through the eons, and on and on

Chorus:
Oh yes, we'll keep on trying
We'll tread that fine line
Oh, we'll keep on trying
'Till the end of time

G#                  A
Till the end of time

E                  F
Through the sorrow all through our splendour
E                       F
Don't take offence at my innuendo

C
You can be anything you want to be
     G7
Just turn yourself into anything you
think that you could ever be
    Am
Be free with your tempo, be free be free
    C                                        G#      G Am
Surrender your ego - be free, be free to yourself

If there's a God or any kind of justice under the sky
If there's a point, if there's a reason to live or die
If there's an answer to the questions we feel bound to ask
Show yourself - destroy our fears - release your mask

Chorus:
Oh yes, we'll keep on trying
Hey, tread that fine line
Yeah, we'll keep on smiling, yeah
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And whatever will be, will be

(We'll just keep on trying)
We'll just keep on trying
Till the end of time
Till the end of time
Till the end of time!
