B                                       A
Afternoon, see a guy with rubies on his head

        B                                   A
and he's shifting like, shifting like he was dead

        B                           A
and he's hearing something she never said

       G              A         B
on his way back home, under his bed
CHORUS:
         B  G         A
When the weight comes down

         B  G         A
When the weight comes down
In the night there's a girl who doesn't mind her ragged sleeves knowing someone soon is gonna grieve and a man he tells her a story, she just don't believe called "adam never could do right by eve."
        B  G         A
and the weight comes down

        B  G         A
and the weight comes down

        B  G         A
and the weight comes down

        F#           A
down on you, down on me

                        Em
and a girl walks by the burning bush

                 G
she asks "what's gone wrong here man?"

                           A
and he smiles, says, "Open wide, wide, wide"
In my dreams, a candy coated train comes to my door with a little girl, I can't have anymore you know a letter washes up to the shore that I cannot read and I probably should ignore when the weight comes down when the weight comes down when the weight comes down CHORDS: A - x02220 or 577655 B - x24442
