[Verse 1]
    A      G      A      G
I'm flying down deserted streets
A          G        A       G
Wrapped in mother's windin' sheets,
  A               G
Asbestos boots on flaming feet
A              G
Dreaming of forbidden treats,
     A           G
When uniforms on nighttime beats
       A                   G
ask me where I'm going and what I eat.
  A                  G
I answer them with a voice so sweet,


[Chorus]
  D          D6        E
I can't come down it's plain to see.
  C             D      A
I can't come down I've been set free.
B       G       F        D        C                     B    D
Who you are and what you do won't make no difference to me.


[Verse 2]
     A                   G       A          G
Well someone's trying to tell me where it's at,
A        G        A        G
how I do this and why I do that,
     A      G             A       G
With secret smiles like a Chesire cat,
    A       G            A       G
And leather wings like a vampire bat,
  A    G         A          G
I fly away to my cold water flat
    A      G             A       G
and eat my way through a bowl of fat,
      A          G            A     G
And I say to the man with the funny hat,


[Chorus]
  D          D6        E
I can't come down it's plain to see.
  C             D      A
I can't come down I've been set free.
B       G       F        D        C                     B    D
Who you are and what you do won't make no difference to me.


[Verse 3]
     A          G      A       G
They say I've begun to lose my grip,
   A         G        A           G
My hold on reality is starting to slip,
     A       G      A        G
They tell me to get off this trip,
     A       G      A       G
They say its like a sinking ship,
A            G          A       G
Life's sweet wine's too warm to sip,
    A    G          A      G
And if I drink I'll surely flip,
A      G        A      G
I just say as I take a nip,


[Chorus]
  D          D6        E
I can't come down it's plain to see.
  C             D      A
I can't come down I've been set free.
B       G       F        D        C                     B    D
Who you are and what you do won't make no difference to me.


[Verse 4]
   A    G        A      G
So as I dream of cotton seas,
   A       G         A       G
Of granite walls and redwood trees,
   A    G        A    G
An ugly eye that only sees,
A       G           A        G
Endless mirrors and infinite me's,
     A        G        A      G
and about the winter's coming freeze,
     A     G        A        G
This afterthought I say with ease,
   A      G       A         G
To all of you who made your pleas.


[Chorus]
  D          D6        E
I can't come down it's plain to see.
  C             D      A
I can't come down I've been set free.
B       G       F        D        C                     B    D
Who you are and what you do won't make no difference to me.
