[Verse 1]

C G

I don't believe a word you're saying

And I know the game you're playing

So it's only just for now

That I will let you take me down

You always manage to be low

So I don't have a chance to go

And it's just temporary now

That I will let you take me down

[Chorus]

C Am

Pick me up on your way down

C7 Dm

Don't your feet ever touch the ground

You know they never make a sound

And if I should ever turn out right

Say my prayers most every night

Now wouldn't that just be a sight

[Verse 2]

C G

Now I aware I should know better

But I don't when we're together

I'll forgive myself somehow

And I will let you take me down

And hold on to somebody else

So if I hold on to you now

Then I will let you take me down

[Chorus]

C Am

Pick me up on your way down

Don't your feet ever touch the ground

You know they never make a sound

Say my prayers most every night

Now wouldn't that just be a sight
