4/4 with regular tuning. Picking should go: On C and Am E-------------------------------------------------------------------| B--------x----------------------------------------------------------| G----x--------------------------------------------------------------| D------x------------------------------------------------------------| A--x----------------------------------------------------------------| E-------------------------------------------------------------------| On Em E-------------------------------------------------------------------| B--------x----------------------------------------------------------| G----x--------------------------------------------------------------| D------x------------------------------------------------------------| A-------------------------------------------------------------------| E--x----------------------------------------------------------------| On F E-------------------------------------------------------------------| B--------x----------------------------------------------------------| G----x--------------------------------------------------------------| D--x----------------------------------------------------------------| A------x------------------------------------------------------------| E-------------------------------------------------------------------| Now that we've got that out of the way: C Am I've been downhearted babe F C I've been down, I've been downhearted babe Em F C Ever since the day we met, ever since the day. C Am F Jan lays down and wrestles in her sleep C Moonlight spills on comic books Em F And superstars in magazines C Am F An old friend calls and tells us where to meet C Her plane takes off from Baltimore Em F And touches down on Bourbon street C Am F We sit outside and argue all night long C About a god we've never seen Em F But never fails to side with me C Am F Sunday comes and all the papers say C Ma Teresa's joined the mob Em F And happy with her full time job C Am I've been downhearted babe F C I've been down, I've been downhearted babe Em F C Ever since the day we met, ever since the day. C Am F Am I alive or thoughts that drift away? C Does summer come for everyone? Em F Can humans do what prophets say? C Am F If I die before I learn to speak C Em Can money pay for all the days I lived awake F But half asleep? C Am F A life is time, they teach you growing up C The seconds ticking killed us all Em F A million years before the fall C Am F You ride the waves and don't ask where they go C You swim like lions through the crest Em F And bathe yourself in zebra flesh C Am I've been downhearted babe F C I've been down, I've been downhearted babe Em F C Ever since the day we met, ever since the day.
