G
I sing myself to sleep
C D
A song from the darkest hour
G
Secrets I can't keep
C D
Inside of the day
G
I swing from high to deep
C D
Extremes of sweet and sour
G
Hope that God exists
C D
I hope I pray
G
Drawn by the under tow
C D
My life is outa' control
G C D
I believe this wave will bear my weight so let it flow
G
Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Oh sit down
C D
Sit down next to me
G C D
Sit down down down down down in sympathy
G
Now I relieved to hear
C D
That you've been to some far out places
G
It's hard to carry on
C D
When you feel all alone
G
The wisdom that I seek
C D
Has been found in the strangest places
G
Feels a lot like love
C D
That I feel for you

G
Now I've swung back down again
C D
And it's worse than it was before
G
If I hadn't seen such riches
C D
I could live with being poor
G
Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Oh sit down
C D
Sit down next to me
G C D
Sit down down down down down in sympathy
G
Those who feel a breath of saddness
C D
Sit down next to me
G
Those who find they're touched by maddness
C D
Sit down next to me
G
Those who find themselves ridiculous
C D
Sit down next to me
G
In love in fear in hate in tears
C D
In love in fear in hate in tears
G
In love in fear in hate in tears
C D
In love in fear in hate
G
Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Oh sit down
C D
Sit down next to me
G C D
Sit down down down down down in sympathy
