Verse 1
Somebody told me well (told me well)
Girl when you feel alone (feel alone)
Nobody’s gonna help (gonna help)
You’ve only got yourself (got yourself)
At the end of the day no-one will save you but the devil himself (yes himself)

Verse 2 (hammond?)
Moving through like a dream (like a dream)
Crazy scene after scene (after scene)
The bar the men and the drink (and the drink)
You’re imagining (imagining)
Coz when you’re upside down the world spins around on your dopamine (dopamine)

Chorus: D F Am G
But you don’t know my life
What goes through my mind
It’s a matter of pride
I take it in my stride

I am good when I’m bad
I’m happy and I’m sad
I’m a little mad

Verse 3
Angels came to see me (to see me)
To set my energy free (energy free)
To untie the bonds (tie the bonds)
To get me out of the woods (out the wood)
But what they don’t understand is that I am what I am and I don’t do what I should (what I should)

Chorus

Pre: F C D(5th) F C G
Help me I’m falling
Down to the bottom

Verse 3
So as the story goes (story goes)
I bring my enemies home (bring them home)
And we stay up all night (up all night)
Then we put on show (on a show)
Coz when I lived in hell I made the best of friends in the fire below (fire below)

  1. This is a great song, but needs the full band behind you. Maybe a slide or lapsteel slightly over driven under pinning the rythm guitar. A definite for the album for me.

  2. A great opportunity for you and the band to rock. I assume words in brackets are BVs and this would be great. Perhaps a lighter touch in the bridge, otherwise rock on.

  3. Love this. Although it’s quite retro sounding you make it feel fresh and different with a sweet vulnerability with the lyric and vocal. Very infectious. I’d be tempted to go all out and have a Hammond organ and sax or trumpet solo/riff .
