TAKE ME DOWN (Kelly Willis, Gary Louris)
----------------------------------------

C            C                   G              G
  I don't believe a word you're saying, and I know the game you're
  F               F             G               G
playing, So it's only just for now that I will let you take me down

C            C             G               G
  You always manage to be low, so I don't have a chance to go
F                F         G   -   G/F     G/E  -  G/D
  And it's just temporary now that I will let you take me down

Ab         C              Am               C7
  Pick me up on your way down, don't your feet ever touch the
  Dm7    Dm7                         Am    Am
ground,   You know they never make a sound
Ab           Ab             C              C
  And if I should turn out right, say my prayers most every
  Dm7   Dm7                       G         G
night,    Now wouldn't that just be a sight

Now I'm aware I should know better, but I don't when we're together
I'll forgive myself somehow, and I will let you take me down

I can't hold onto myself and hold onto somebody else
So if I hold onto you now, then I will let you take me down

Pick me up on your way down, don't your feet ever touch the ground
You know they never make a sound
And if I should ever turn out right, say my prayers most every night
Now wouldn't that just be a sight, yeahhhhhh

Pick me up on your way down
Don't your feet ever touch the ground
You know they never make a sound
And if I should ever turn out right
Say my prayers most every night
Now wouldn't that just be a sight
