A#m           F#             C#  Fm
My heart gets lost like a message
My head is on the clouds and I don't get it
And so, I'm fashionably numb
Sometimes it helps to forget where we come from

Out of the mire, we were torn from, remember
Out of the fire again but I'm an ember
I'd hold a banner for you but it's upside down
You got a question or two but I'm tongue-tied now

Chorus:
A#m           F#          C#
Don't try to follow me, I would
          G#
Hold you down if I could
Make you the enemy, I would
Let you down
Don't try to follow me, I would
Hold you down if I could
Make you the enemy, I would
Let you down

I took a ride on the champagne
You took a flight over San Fran Bay
We watched, it's all misunderstood
Your heart was warm like a brother's should
But then the gallow gave way
Sometimes they call after you
But you say

Chorus

F#
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
A#m                 G#
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

Chorus

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
