Downhill (CHORDS) by Lincoln
[Verse 1]~
G
but that’s just something people say
D
when they’re on their last leg and
G
they need someone to say something to help them cope
B D
or someone to say something hopeful
D G
I hope you’re ok
D
but thats just something people say
B
and if I meant every word that I ever said
G
you would probably question the life I have led
D
you’d probably think I’m an evil broken person
D
and you would be right
[Chorus 1]~
G
because I went downhill at such steep incline
D
that my rearview mirror showed me only the sky
B D
and I laughed about it all night
G
and I said “hey man,..!! isn’t it poetic
D
that the sky is what we leave behind!!..?”
B
cause I was born into the world on a silken cloud
D
and I got bored of the world before I hit the ground
[Verse 2]~
G D
and you’re the one who taught me to be brave
B G D
I’ve never spent a moment loving anyone but you
G D
and maybe that’s just something that people say
B G
but I hope that you know it’s the truth
[Chorus 2]~
G
because I went downhill at such steep incline
D
that my rearview mirror showed me only the sky
B D
and I laughed about it all night
[Verse 3]~
G D
because you were the first one to show me the stars
B
and they don’t mean much to me
G
but I still wonder where you are
B G
and some nights I still try to find you
B G
relative to constellations
B G
and all your relatives are still on vacation
D B
or so I heard from a friend
G D
and does it mean anything
B D
that you stayed in town!!..?
probably not
[Chorus 3]~
G
because I went downhill at such steep incline
D
that my rearview mirror showed me only the sky
