Downhill chords by Lincoln Brewster

Verse 1:
                 F
but that's just something people say
         C
when they're on their last leg and
      F
they need someone to say something to help them cope
   A             C
or someone to say something hopeful
 C       F
I hope you're ok
                C
but thats just something people say
     A
and if I meant every word that I ever said
      F
you would probably question the life I have led
                    C
you'd probably think I'm an evil broken person
            C
and you would be right

Chorus 1:
    F
because I went downhill at such steep incline
      C
that my rearview mirror showed me only the sky
    A          C
and I laughed about it all night
        F
and I said 'hey man, isn't it poetic
     C
that the sky is what we leave behind?'
        A
cause I was born into the world on a silken cloud
      C
and I got bored of the world before I hit the ground


Verse 2:
    F                C
and you're the one who taught me to be brave
    A              F    C
I've never spent a moment loving anyone but you
   F              C
and maybe that's just something that people say
    A              F
but I hope that you know it's the truth


Chorus 2:
    F
because I went downhill at such steep incline
      C
that my rearview mirror showed me only the sky
    A          C
and I laughed about it all night


Verse 3:
     F             C
because you were the first one to show me the stars
        A
and they don't mean much to me
       F
but I still wonder where you are
   A             F
and some nights I still try to find you
  A        F
relative to constellations
        A            F
and all your relatives are still on vacation
     C       A
or so I heard from a friend
       F      C
and does it mean anything
  A        C
that you stayed in town?

probably not


Chorus 3:
    F

and I laughed about it all night
        F
and I said 'hey man, isn't it poetic
     C
that the sky is what we leave behind?'
        A
cause I was born into the world on a silken cloud
      C
and I got bored of the world before I hit the ground
        F
hey man, isn't it poetic
     C
that the sky is what we leave behind?
        A
cause I was born into the world on a silken cloud
      C
and I got bored of the world before I hit the ground
