[B] I sing myself to sleep a song [C#m] from [F#] the [B] darkest hour
Secrets I can't keep [A] inside of [B] the day I swing from high to deep
Extreme [C#m] of [B] sweet and sour I hope that God exists I [A] hope I [B] pray
[F#] Drawn [E] by the undertow my [C#m] life is out of [B] control
[E]
I believe this wave will bear my [C#m] wind so let it [Bm] flow
Oh [E] sit down, oh sit down, oh sit down, [A] sit down next to [B] me
[E] Sit down, down, down, down, [A] down on [B] sympathy
Now I'm relieved to hear that you've been [C#m] to some [B] far out place
It's hard to carry on when [F#m] you feel all [G#m] [B] alone
Now I've swung back down again it's [C#m] worse than it was [B] before
If I hadn't seen such riches I could [C#m] live with being [B] poor
Oh [E] sit down, oh sit down, oh sit down, sit down next to [B] me
[E] Sit down, down, down, down, down
[A] on [B] sympathy

Those who feel the breath of sadness sit down next to me
