D#maj7         F        D#maj7       F
Surrounded by people, a real heavy crowd
D#maj7 Dm7              Gmaj7
But inside I still feel lonely now
D#maj7    F                D#maj7          F
Should I get away from the high heels so proud?
D#maj7    Dm7                           F Gm/D F  F Gm/D F
Is there something different life can show me now?

Chorus:
 G                                 G#/G             F/G
First chance: I blew it, I better start it all again
 G                                           G#/G            F/G
Second chance: ooh, I knew it wouldn't be as easy as they said
  A                        A#/A                 G/A
Third chance: I'm cut up. Life's like a razor's edge
 A                                            A#/A            G/A
Fourth chance: ooh, I'm all shut up, and I'm standing on the ledge
               D
And I'm going down (going down)
      A7sus4       A
Going down (going down)
       D             A7sus4 A
Going down (going down)

I'm not a loser, but did I really win?
Can I afford to go through it all again?
I hope I don't sound as immature as I feel
But when I get wise, I'll give you a call, my friend

Chorus

Gmaj7          D#maj7   F
Love is coming down on me, ooh yeah
Gmaj7                              D#maj7  F
Love is burning, teaching, turning out in me.
Dmaj7          G#/D  D#maj7/D
Love is coming down, down
Cm7   Cm6   Dsus4  D  Dsus4 D
Down, down. Down, down

D#maj7     F         D#maj7        F
I'm not a loser, but did I really win?
D#maj7       Dm7               Gmaj7/D
I'm looking forward to doing it all again?
