Song
Down So Long
by Jewel Kilcher
tabbed by Thomas Hill
When you play the "Am", pluck the A string twice, then strum the
chord. For the "G" and "F" chords, pluck the E string (top one) twice
then strum the chords. Do this for the intro and the verses. Just play
the chords in the chorus normally.
INTRO
|Am G |F G|
VERSE 1
SUN SETS ´CROSS THE OCEAN
I´M A THOUSAND MILES FROM ANYWHERE
MY POCKETBOOK AND MY HEART BOTH JUST GOT STOLEN
AND THE SUN ACT LIKE SHE DON´T EVEN CARE
THE WIND BLOWS COLD WHEN YOU REACH THE TOP
IT FEELS LIKE SOMEONES FACE IS STUCK TO THE BOTTOM OF MY SHOE
I GOT A PLASTIC JESUS, A CORDLESS TELEPHONE FOR EVERY CORNER OF MY ROOM
GOT EVERYBODY BUT YOU TELLING ME WHAT TO DO
CHORUS
BUT I´VE BEEN DOWN SO LOOOOOOOOOOOONG
OOH, IT CAN´T BE LONGER STIIIIIIIIIILL
I´VE BEEN DOWN SO LOOOOOOOOOOOONG
THAT THE END MUST BE DRAWING NEAR
I LOOK TO EVERYBODY BUT ME TO ANSWER MY PRAYERS
TIL I SAW AN ANGEL IN A BATHROOM WHO SAID SHE SAW NO ONE WORTH SAVING
ANYWHERE
AND A BLIND MAN ON THE CORNER SAID IT´S SIMPLE, LIKE FLIPPING A COIN
DON´T MATTER WHAT SIDE IT LANDS ON IF IT´S SOMEONE ELSE´S DIME
CHORUS
BUT I´VE BEEN DOWN SO LOOOOOOOOOOONG
OOH, IT CAN´T BE LONGER STIIIIIIIIIIILL
I´VE BEEN DOWN SO LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG
THAT THE END MUST BE DRAWING NEAR
BRIDGE (JUST DRUMS)
I TAKE A TRIP, I CATCH A TRAIN, I CATCH A PLANE
I GOT A TICKET IN MY HAND, AND THE A FAT MAN TAKES MY MONEY
AND LIKE CATTLE WE ALL STAND
CHORUS
BUT WE´VE BEEN DOWN SO LOOOOOOOOOOONG
OOH, IT CAN´T BE LONGER STIIIIIIIIIIILL
I´VE BEEN DOWN SO LOOOOOOOOOOONG
THAT THE END MUST BE
I KNOW THE END MUST BE
F G |Am G|F |
OH I KNOW THE END MUST BE DRAWING NEAR
