Verse 1:

Bm7Bm7       A#dim7A#dim7  Gmaj7Gmaj7  F#7#5
Some people have got their theories
Bm7Bm7        A#dim7A#dim7      Gmaj7Gmaj7       F#7#5
That the heart is supposed to be a house for the soul
Bm7Bm7       A#dim7A#dim7    Gmaj7Gmaj7 F#7#5
Well I’ve got my fair share of queries
Bm7Bm7       A#dim7A#dim7  Gmaj7Gmaj7     F#7#5
When will my love find its way back home?

Verse 2:

Bm7Bm7    A#dim7A#dim7     Gmaj7Gmaj7      F#7#5
Philosophy keeps me going round in circles
Bm7Bm7       A#dim7A#dim7      Gmaj7Gmaj7    F#7#5
Just like how I chase you like I chase my tail
Bm7Bm7    A#dim7A#dim7         Gmaj7Gmaj7   F#7#5    Bm7Bm7
The world ain’t gonna stop spinning ‘cos I ain’t got you
A#dim7A#dim7     Gmaj7Gmaj7   F#7#5
How did you get to the top of the hill?

Chorus:
      Bm7Bm7
So come on down!
Bm7Bm7       C#m7b5C#m7b5    F#7#5
Standing on that pedestal babe
   Bm7Bm7      C#m7b5C#m7b5  F#7#5
Don’t you wanna get together?
      Bm7Bm7
So come on down!
Bm7Bm7       C#m7b5C#m7b5   F#7#5
Swinging like a pendulum hey
   Bm7Bm7               C#m7b5C#m7b5  F#7#5
Gotta let me know where this is going sooner or later

Verse 3:
Bm7Bm7      A#dim7A#dim7   Gmaj7Gmaj7    F#7#5
I found myself losing the art of believing
Bm7Bm7    A#dim7A#dim7     Gmaj7Gmaj7     F#7#5
Some place somewhere down along the line
Bm7Bm7     A#dim7A#dim7      Gmaj7Gmaj7    F#7#5
You came and went and left me here so alone
Bm7Bm7     A#dim7A#dim7  Gmaj7Gmaj7    F#7#5
But somehow I’ve never felt so alive

Verse 4:
Bm7Bm7      A#dim7A#dim7   Gmaj7Gmaj7 F#7#5
Here I am now messy in my misery
      Bm7Bm7                A#dim7A#dim7          Gmaj7Gmaj7     F#7#5
The way you drop me like a bomb then you come hit me so hard with your cold technique
Bm7Bm7   A#dim7A#dim7        Gmaj7Gmaj7      F#7#5
I often wonder how you get to play with gravity
Bm7Bm7         A#dim7A#dim7
But don’t you get it babe
Gmaj7Gmaj7            F#7#5
All I really want to know is what you really need

Chorus:
      Bm7Bm7
So come on down!
Bm7Bm7       C#m7b5C#m7b5    F#7#5
Standing on that pedestal babe
   Bm7Bm7      C#m7b5C#m7b5  F#7#5
Don’t you wanna get together?
      Bm7Bm7
So come on down!
