Downhill chords by Lincoln Brewster

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
                 FF
but that's just something people say
         C majorC
when they're on their last leg and
      FF
they need someone to say something to help them cope
   A augmentedA             C majorC
or someone to say something hopeful
 C majorC       FF
I hope you're ok
                C majorC
but thats just something people say
     A augmentedA
and if I meant every word that I ever said
      FF
you would probably question the life I have led
                    C majorC
you'd probably think I'm an evil broken person
            C majorC
and you would be right

Chorus 1:
    FF
because I went downhill at such steep incline
      C majorC
that my rearview mirror showed me only the sky
    A augmentedA          C majorC
and I laughed about it all night
        FF
and I said 'hey man, isn't it poetic
     C majorC
that the sky is what we leave behind?'
        A augmentedA
cause I was born into the world on a silken cloud
      C majorC
and I got bored of the world before I hit the ground


Verse 2:
    FF                C majorC
and you're the one who taught me to be brave
    A augmentedA              FF    C majorC
I've never spent a moment loving anyone but you
   FF              C majorC
and maybe that's just something that people say
    A augmentedA              FF
but I hope that you know it's the truth

Chorus 2:
    FF
because I went downhill at such steep incline
      C majorC
that my rearview mirror showed me only the sky
    A augmentedA          C majorC
and I laughed about it all night


Verse 3:
     FF             C majorC
because you were the first one to show me the stars
        A augmentedA
and they don't mean much to me
       FF
but I still wonder where you are
   A augmentedA             FF
and some nights I still try to find you
  A augmentedA        FF
relative to constellations
        A augmentedA            FF
and all your relatives are still on vacation
     C majorC       A augmentedA
or so I heard from a friend
       FF      C majorC
and does it mean anything
  A augmentedA        C majorC
that you stayed in town?

probably not


Chorus 3:
    FF
because I went downhill at such steep incline
      C majorC
that my rearview mirror showed me only the sky
    A augmentedA          C majorC
and I laughed about it all night
        FF
and I said 'hey man, isn't it poetic
     C majorC
that the sky is what we leave behind?'
        A augmentedA
cause I was born into the world on a silken cloud
      C majorC
and I got bored of the world before I hit the ground
        FF
hey man, isn't it poetic
     C majorC
that the sky is what we leave behind?
        A augmentedA
cause I was born into the world on a silken cloud
      C majorC
and I got bored of the world before I hit the ground
