No Use for a Name – Let Me Down (Guitar)

                D
She's never alone, 

                A                                  Bm
because she's scared of what she might say to herself

              A                         D   F#m  
Always drinking in the backroom of the bar where 

  Bm  A         G
everyone turns in

                A
A half-hearted grin

               D
She won't be afraid 

                A                          Bm
as long as that prescription keeps going through

            A                               D   F#m  
And all the happy pills make her look like cardboard 

  Bm  A            G
cut out of someone,

                 A
I use to learn from

             Bm    A               G
But on the phone,    she's telling everyone,

                   D                   F#m 
that there was a blue sky, she left behind

               Bm   A              G
And there's a place that no one knows about,

               Em                      G                   A 
Away from integrity she writes a book in her head that nobody will read

                D
Whatever you say, 

                A                                  Bm
please don't talk about the time when she was young

            A                          D   F#m  
Apparently that was a different person and so 

 Bm    A           G
long ago it's strange to me,

                A
there's no history

              Bm   A               G
But there's a past and she's telling everyone 

                    D                  F#m
It must be a garden,    that wouldn't grow

                Bm   A             G
With roots of shame, too sensitive to blame  

               Em                     G                   A 
herself as we watch he drown, I can't save the queen without a kingdom or a crown

D                                  F#m      
Somewhere in this lonely game of sympathy 

            Bm             A
there is a selfish dream

               G       (A)
That makes me sick

D                                      F#m          
Standing on the high wire while you're on the ground

                   Bm    A                 G
To you what is dangerous   is safe and sound...
