C                   C7 
I remember how your eyes used to light up 
     F 
Over promises that I made 
G7 
But for the first time in my life 
                  F           C 
I know now how it feels to be afraid 


I don't know what I'd do if you go away 
                C7                F 
This would sure be one lonely old town 
               G7   C               F 
For a man's so busy going up in the world 
                          G7 
That he couldn't see love coming down 
            C 
Love coming down 

                   C7 
I remember all the times you told me 
F 
Love's all that matters to you 
G7 
And looking back now wondering how I believed 
  F                            C 
I had things more important to do 


I can see how I must have looked to you 
               C7            F 
Like some fool on a merry-go-round 
                    G7   C               F 
And that a man's so busy going up in the world 
                          G7 
That he couldn't see love going down 
           C 
Love going down 

G7                                F 
Can't you see how everything I've learned 
              G7            C      G7 
Would just be wasted if you le-ave me 
   C 
If you just give one more try 
  G7                                 C     G7 
I swear I'll always be here when you n-eed me 

C                          F        C 
If you can find it in your heart to forgive me 
                                     F 
I'll try to keep both my feet on the ground 
                  G7   C               F 
But if a man's so busy going up in the world 
                          G7 
That he couldn't see love coming down 
            C 
Love coming down
