Downer

[Verso 1]
 
A5 
Can't stop, gotta get up and run 
      E5 
Don't walk, never, ever show emotions 
        A5 
Nonstop talk 
                                       E5 
Slow down and you'll never get back on track, Attacked from all directions

[Verso 2]
 
A                                          E 
Beat street, feel the rhythm beneath your feet 
                             A 
Apathetic, copacetic joie de vivre 
                              E 
Type 2 as the enneagram displays, And I'm always exhausted 
 


[Refrão]
 
D     A      E 
Don't ask me why, It's a complicated tale 
D   A        E 
My hands are tied 
     
Too tight to lift this veil 
D   A       E 
Of darkest night 
                      D 
And all the promises I made 
             A              E 
When I would always let you down, And I will always let you down

[Verso 3]
 
  A                                  E 
I can't see when the moon is a mystery 
                                A 
Mawkish tonics of a tragic century, Tongue-tied is the motto 
            E 
The crest I wear to carry out connection 
A                                          E 
Dreadnought, shoving everything in one spot 
                                 A 
Qualifying all the money that I shot, On high hopes for a mentally chill parade 
E 
But I'm still fucking anxious 
 


[Refrão]
 
D     A      E 
Don't ask me why, It's a complicated tale 
D   A        E 
My hands are tied 
     
Too tight to lift this veil 
D   A       E 
Of darkest night 
                      D 
And all the promises I made 
             A              E 
When I would always let you down, And I will always let you down

           E              C#5            F#5 
When I was small, I made a lot of mistakes 
           E                 C#5               D5 
Then I grew up and learned it wasn't quite that way 
               E           C#5            D5 
If I had known back then it wasn't my fault 
             E                       E 
It might have affected the way that I acted 
               E                  E          A 
With confidence instead of hiding behind it all

D      A      E 
Don't ask me why, it's complicated 
D   A        E     
My hands are tied 
D      A     E 
Don't ask me why 
                
It's just the circumstance I'm in 
D      A     E 
Don't ask me why 
               
Might be the color of my skin 
D     A      E 
Don't ask me why 
                      D 
I make the promises I make 
             A              E    
When I just always let you down 
D          A              E 
And I will always let you down 
         
I will always let you down
