Down On Me

INTRO: C Am Dm G (2x) 

C                  Am    Dm 
The poet's head is dead 
                       G 
His words have been misread 
C                        Am   Dm 
And the cynic's lips are dry 
                     G        C 
His vulture tongue obsessed 

(C)       Dm 
You gotta love the earth 
G 
Don't burn my wings 
Em 
Too close to the sun 


[Refrão]

Am                    C        G 
What the hell am I supposed to do 
G                   C       Am 
When you're pushing hard on me 
Am                   C        G 
who the hell am I supposed to be 
G                        C    Am 
When you're bleeding all over me 



C Dm G (G) 

C 
God knows I'm good 
Am 
So misunderstood 
          Dm    G 
Coming to you   Ah-ah 
C 
I'm down on my own 
Am 
No spirit unknown 
       Dm         G                        C 
That's why I'm supposed to believe in you 

(C)    Dm 
I love the earth 
G 
Don't burn my wings 
Em 
Too close to the sun 

(CHORUS) 
What the hell am I supposed to do 
When you're pushing hard on me 
who the hell am I supposed to be 
When you're bleeding all over me 

Am 
Said it before 
Em 
Sayin' it again 
(Em) 
Holy fools yea 

C Dm G G x2 


[Refrão]

Am                    C        G 
What the hell am I supposed to do 
G                   C       Am 
When you're pushing hard on me 
Am                   C        G 
who the hell am I supposed to be 
G                        C    Am 
When you're bleeding all over me 



Am                             C                  G 
What are you gonna do when the light gets in your eye 
G                                       C    Am 
You're gonna find that there's--there's life outside 
Am          C        G 
Who am I supposed to be 
G              C             Am 
When you're so hard, hard on me 

OUTRO
 
(C)                   Am 
Oh the poet's head is dead 
Dm                  G 
His words have been misread 
C                    Am 
The cynic's lips are dry 
Dm                  G 
His vulture tongue obsessed 

(G)                       C                  
And he wants to know that God knows I'm good 
(Am) (Dm) (G) (C)
