capo: 4th fret

[intro]

Am Em C F

[verse (1)]

Am             Em                 G
This night is cold in the kingdom
                F        Am
I can feel you fade away
                        Em               G
From the kitchen to the bathroom sink and
                F
Your steps keep me awake

[pre-chorus]

      Am
Don't cut me down, throw me out
Em
Leave me here to waste
  G                   F
I once was a man with dignity and grace
        Am
Now i'm slipping through the cracks
        Em
Of your cold embrace
   G              F
So please, please

[chorus]

          Am                        Em
Could you find a way to let me down slowly?
         G                        F
A little sympathy, i hope you can show me
       Am                       Em
If you wanna go then i'll be so lonely
          G                        F
If you're leaving baby let me down slowly

             Am
Let me down, down
             Em
Let me down, down

Let me down, let me down
G                   F
Down, let me down, down, let me down
       Am                       Em
If you wanna go then i'll be so lonely
          G                        F
If you're leaving baby let me down slowly

[verse (2)]

Am                 Em               G
Cold skin, drag my feet on the tile
                        F        Am
As i'm walking down the corridor
                      Em               G
And i know we haven't talked in a while
                      F
So i'm looking for an open door

[pre-chorus]

      Am                          Em
Don't cut me down, throw me out, leave me here to waste
  G                   F
I once was a man with dignity and grace
        Am                                  Em
Now i'm slipping through the cracks of your cold embrace
   G              F
So please, please

[chorus]

          Am                        Em
Could you find a way to let me down slowly?
         G                        F
A little sympathy, i hope you can show me
       Am                       Em
If you wanna go then i'll be so lonely
         G                        F
If you're leaving baby let me down slowly

             Am
Let me down, down
             Em
Let me down, down, let me down, let me down
G                   F
Down, let me down, down

Let me down
       Am                       Em
If you wanna go then i'll be so lonely
          G                        F
If you're leaving baby let me down slowly

[bridge]

            Am               Em
And i can't stop myself from falling down
            G                F
And i can't stop myself from falling down
            Am               Em
And i can't stop myself from falling down
            G                F
And i can't stop myself from falling down
