A G | A G | A G | A G |
[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.
