James - Sit Down

E                           A             B
I'll sing myself to sleep a song from the darkest hour
E                      A           B
Secrets I can't keep inside of the day
E                          A          B  
Swing from high to deep extremes of sweet and sour
E                      A      B
Hope that God exists I hope I pray
E
Drawn by the undertow
     A               B
My life is out of control
E                                   A
I believe this wave will bear my weight
            B
So let it flow

E
Oh sit down, oh sit down, oh sit down
A                B   E
Sit down next to me, sit down, down, down, down, down
A        B
In sympathy


E                                      A           B
Now I'm relieved to hear that you've been to some far out places
E                                A         B
It's hard to carry on when you feel all alone
E                                     A                  B
Now I've swung back down again it's worse than it was before
      E                               A                B
If I hadn't seen such riches I could live with being poor
 
E
Oh sit down, oh sit down, oh sit down
A                B   E
Sit down next to me, sit down, down, down, down, down
A        B
In sympathy

(No guitar at this part - only bass)
E
Those who feel the breath of sadness
A                B
Sit down next to me

E
Those who find they're touched by madness
A                B
Sit down next to me
E
Those who find themselves ridiculous
A                B
Sit down next to me

E                                    A                 B
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears, in love, in fear, in hate, in tears
E                                    A                 B 
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears, in love, in fear, in hate...

E     A  B    E     A  B
Down          Down

E
Oh sit down, oh sit down, oh sit down
A                B   E
Sit down next to me, sit down, down, down, down, down
A        B
In sympathy

E
Oh sit down, oh sit down, oh sit down
A                B   E
Sit down next to me, sit down, down, down, down, down
A        B
In sympathy

E
Down
