When It Goes Down

Intro: Bb F C D#  Bb F C D#

                  Bb    F    C   D#
When it all just fits
           Bb                F
No more waiting up 'till midnight
    C                D#
To see if he comes home
             Bb     F
And it sinks in
              C                       D#
Through these holes in your old bed sheets
          Bb        F
You might spend your life alone
     C               D#      Bb  F  C D#
And you don't want to be alone
          Bb  F  C D#
no not alone

When you think too much
And you came to another game
Despondent out of touch
And you reach so hard it makes you fall
For these hands that let you go
That shouldn't let you go at all
that shouldnt let you go at all
no not at all

 C                                   D#
I don't know what its like to be you baby
                                   Bb
but from the looks I don't think I want to
 C
and I know I've been hanging on tight
D#                             Bb
so maybe it just might mean I want you
            F
yeah babe I want you

Bb   F          C
You know what I mean
                  D#                      Bb
When I say that I come from a place that hurts
    F           C
You fit in my scene
                   D#       Bb
And try to make everything work
     F              C
You watch me turn green
                      D#             Bb
I come down, yeah but I might never land
      F           C
You said you'd understand
    D#                    F
But you don't want to be there

B                 F
Staring at the ceiling
C                  D#
Gives me another feeling
      Bb          F C D#
About who you are
             Bb              F
And you know I was really thinking
        C            D#
I could be another Lincoln
Bb
If I got this far
F
If I got this far
C              D#
driving in my car
           Bb      F              C                 D#
and Then I started holding on to things I couldn't keep
         Bb                   F
And the wise ass called me faggot
       C                D#
But I feel more like a creep
                   Bb  F C D#
and these things creep
              Bb    F
I watch them creep
    C         D#
and I dont get no sleep

    C                                       D#
And I don't know what it's like to take it slow
                                   Bb
and from the feel I don't think I want to
no I dont want to
and I now know
C                              D#
And I know that it seems I'm Letting go
                                 Bb
And things I know, I know would haunt you
                     F
and I don't want to haunt you
