[G] [C]
All this talk of getting old is getting me [Am] down my love
[A] Like a cat in [Em] a bag waiting [F] to drown
[G] This time [C] I'm coming down
[G] [C]
And I know you're thinking of me
As you lay [A] down on your side
[Am] Now the drugs don't work
[Em] They just make [F] you worse
But I [G]
know I'll see [C] your face again
[G] [C] Now the drugs don't work
They just make [F] you worse
But I [G]
know I'll see [C] your face again

As I [A] pass down [Am] by your old street
[A] And [Am]
if you [Em] wanna show
Just let [F] me know

This [G] time I'm [C] coming down
