good to be here, how've y'all been?
Check my back, boy, where's my wound?
I sit on the ground, that's my game.
Keep up [D] the pressure all the way.
I don't wanna be [G] about the bush.
[C]
But none of us are getting [Dm] any younger.
[D] There's people out there who [Gm] won't take your place.
[D#] [Cm] I'm off the map, so [E] give [A] a break.
I [Dm] need a shower, take a nap.
I'll meet you in the fall when you step on back.
There's a lot I wanna learn about the state.
There's something I [D] must tell you today.
You have a load [G] of straw.
[C] You can't go on like this [Dm] forever.
[D] So it's with regret [Gm] I tell you now.

Down [C] tall, round corners.
Back between me and I.
[A] Witness how [D] they run [Em] past you.
[A] Stand tall, [Em] see them [D] falling.
No [C] bombs, a straight line.
Right between the eyes.
[A] Well, show me [Em] the door.
[A] Show me someone [Em] who can [D] get back [Dm] down.
The drinks below me be my guest.
Smoke a cig, I'll take a flist.
Don't let your grace make a deal.
You got it in [D] your pocket, how you feel.
So glad it's over now, [G] you know.
[C] Well, I'm all reacting [E] [Dm] underwaters.
[D] I'm looking down on you [Gm] from way up here.

[G] [Dm]
[A] out of the way.

If you're slow, they'll [G] run past you.

Stand tall, see them [Em] [D] falling.
No [C] bombs, a straight line.
Right between the eyes.

Well, show me the door.
Show me someone [Em] who [Am] can get [D] back [Em] down.

NotesBeta

To start learning Genesis - 01 Down And Out chords, build your understanding on these basic chords - G, C, Dm, D, C, A, Em, A and D in sequence. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 46 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 93. For a balanced pitch, adjust the capo with respect to your voice and the song's key: D Minor.
