(início)
Bb Gm I was running off trying not to fall, Dm someone said excuse man you got a call Bb Gm Dm This voice I never heard before was on the other end Bb Gm It was the telephone lady and I needed to pay my bill, Dm she said in soft and open trill Bb Gm Dm I fell so hard but I knew soon she’d be gone again Eb F Bb Bb/A Gm Incoming isolation, thank god for predestination Eb F Bb You know me I always take it in stride
Verse 2
Bb Gm Do you wear your hair long, or keep it short, Dm do you live in Utah or off the coast of Cape Horn Bb Gm Dm We could meet up on a drawbridge somewhere in between Bb Gm Or hell, I’ll just come your way, Dm our first date can be on the Champs-Elysees, Bb Gm Dm then later you can break my heart on a stranger’s trampoline Eb F Bb Bb/A Gm Incoming isolation, thank god for masturbation Eb F Bb You know me I always take it in stride
Chorus
Eb F Bb Just let me down easy, let me down good Bb/A Gm Eb I saw it coming, even before you could F Bb So let me down easy and I’ll be gone
Verse 3
Bb Gm While I’m off in my unruly dream, Dm you’re talking about some new unlimited plan Bb Gm And I’m walkin back to our houseboat on the Thames Dm when I found you in bed with another man Bb Gm I shake my head, I should’ve known, Dm I walk backwards hoping that time will come along Bb Gm Dm You say is there anything else that I can help you with
Chorus
(single strums) Eb F Bb Just let me down easy, let me down good Bb/A Gm Eb I saw it coming, even before you could F Bb So let me down easy and I’ll be gone
