Down Here

• G

Artist: Falling Up
Song: Down Here
Album: Midnight on Earthship (2012)
Author: Jessy Ribordy

Note: The song enters (lyrically) at 3/4 through the first measure, 
so the transition to Em7 (from G) in the first verse will be stuck 
on the word "am." This overlap continues through the verses, with 
the "end" of "G" starting on the first line.

Verse 1: 
G          Em7               Cadd9
All that I am to all that You are
                 G
Is one dimming flicker to millions of stars

G            Em7                Cadd9
All that I have to all that You gave
             G 
Is laboring breathing to blood in my veins

G                  Em7                  Cadd9
And gold like the blood that had to be suffered
             G               Dsus4
So I could spend it away

Chorus:
Cadd9                       Em7              D          Cadd9 (loops)
'Cause I'm down here I'm a little lower, a little further down
Cadd9             Em7            D   
Down here I'm a little lower, a little further down
Cadd9             Em7            D   
Down here I'm a little lower, a little further down
Cadd9             Em7            D            Cadd9
Down here I'm a little lower, a little further down


Verse 2:
            Em7               Cadd9
I dream of kings, I dream of kingdoms
              G                        
I dream of distance where speed can't be tamed

G             Em7              Cadd9
I speak of secrets, I speak of fame
               G
I’m building constructs so they'll know my name

G              Em7                Cadd9
And when I am older, and when I am bored
                     G        Dsus4
I’ll take up Your promise

Chorus:
Cadd9                       Em7              D          Cadd9 (loops)
'Cause I'm down here I'm a little lower, a little further down
Cadd9             Em7            D   
Down here I'm a little lower, a little further down
Cadd9             Em7            D   
Down here I'm a little lower, a little further down
Cadd9             Em7            D            Cadd9
Down here I'm a little lower, a little further down
