Artist: Falling Up Song: Down Here Album: Midnight on Earthship (2012) Author: Jessy Ribordy Note: The song enters (lyrically) at 3/4 through the first measure, so the transition to Em7 (from G) in the first verse will be stuck on the word "am." This overlap continues through the verses, with the "end" of "G" starting on the first line. Verse 1:
C          Am7               Fadd9
All that I am to all that You are

                 C
Is one dimming flicker to millions of stars

C            Am7                Fadd9
All that I have to all that You gave

             C 
Is laboring breathing to blood in my veins

C                  Am7                  Fadd9
And gold like the blood that had to be suffered

             C               Gsus4
So I could spend it away
Chorus:
Fadd9                       Am7              G          Fadd9 (loops)
'Cause I'm down here I'm a little lower, a little further down

Fadd9             Am7            G   
Down here I'm a little lower, a little further down

Fadd9             Am7            G   
Down here I'm a little lower, a little further down

Fadd9             Am7            G            Fadd9
Down here I'm a little lower, a little further down
Verse 2:
            Am7               Fadd9
I dream of kings, I dream of kingdoms

              C                        
I dream of distance where speed can't be tamed

C             Am7              Fadd9
I speak of secrets, I speak of fame

               C
I'm building constructs so they'll know my name

C              Am7                Fadd9
And when I am older, and when I am bored

                     C        Gsus4
I'll take up Your promise
Chorus:
Fadd9                       Am7              G          Fadd9 (loops)
'Cause I'm down here I'm a little lower, a little further down

Fadd9             Am7            G   
Down here I'm a little lower, a little further down

Fadd9             Am7            G   
Down here I'm a little lower, a little further down

Fadd9             Am7            G            Fadd9
Down here I'm a little lower, a little further down
