[Switch to strumming pattern for James, Sit Down] [Verse]
E
I sing myself to sleep

A               B
A song from the darkest hour

E
Secrets I can't keep

A             B
Inside of the day

E
I swing from high to deep

A           B
Extremes of sweet and sour

E
Hope that God exists

A         B
I hope, I pray

E
Drawn by the undertow

A                 B
My life is out of control

E                                A                B
I believe this wave will bear my weight so let it flow
[Chorus]
E
Oh sit down

E
Oh sit down

E
Oh sit down

A                B
Sit down next to me

E                          A    B
Sit down down down down down in sympathy
[Verse]
E
Now I'm relieved to hear

           A              B
That you've been to some far out places

      E
It's hard to carry on

         A        B
When you feel all alone

E
The wisdom that I seek

           A              B
Has been found in the strangest places

E
Feels a lot like love

           A              B
That I feel for you

E
Now I've swung back down again

       A                 B
It's worse than it was before

     E
If I hadn't seen such riches

         A               B
I could live with being poor
[Chorus]
E
Oh sit down

E
Oh sit down

E
Oh sit down

A                B
Sit down next to me

E                          A    B
Sit down down down down down in sympathy
[Bridge]
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
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears

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

E
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears

A                  B
In love, in fear, in hate
[Chorus]

Oh sit down

Oh sit down

A                B
Sit down next to me

Sit down down down down down in sympathy

When I'm dreaming well I know I'm gonna dream

            A             B                  E

And when I come home, yes I know I'm gonna be

          A              B                    C#m
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home with you

          F#m              B                E
I'm gonna be the man who's coming home with you
[Chorus]
    E
But I would walk 500 miles

     A            B
And I would walk 500 more

        E                           A
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles

             B
To fall down at your door

    E
And I would walk 500 miles

     A            B
And I would walk 500 more

        E                           A
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles
