Down Like Me

• C

Capo 1

C                        Am
At last I understand the consequences of my love

    Dm                                     G
But how could there be a heaven where they kicked you out

                                       C
'cause you kicked out your chair from above

                   Am
Everybode loves to stick with the winner

    Dm                             G
But you showed me the line between victory and dying

                                 C          
couldn't get much thinner 'cause you

                         F
You found out how to get down

G7    Gsus2  F
Down  like   me


C                        Am
When my self-pity became less than a full-time work

Dm                         G
I meditated on the methods and the means 

                            C
and whether or not it would hurt

                                 Am
Then I got a call they found you swinging out over the earth

    Dm                           G
And so over me you win again in finishes, forms,

                 C          
in finals and in firsts

                       F
You finally had to get down

G7    Gsus2  F
Down  like   me


C                                 Am
"By the time you read this I will no longer be here"

Dm                                     G
I had to read these words to all your family, friends

                         C
everybody you never held dear

                             Am
We'll keep an empty place at dinner forever

    Dm                             G
And I'll maintain an empty chair so you can set in

                              C          
And we'll never grow old together

                          F
You showed 'em how to get down

G7    Gsus2  F
Down  like   me
