Verse 1:
[ G A(7) ] x4
Did you think that your feet had been bound
By what gravity brings to the ground?
Em C
Did you feel you were tricked
G (Em) C (Am)
By the future you picked?
G A G A
Well, come on down
Em C
All those rules don't apply
G (Em) C (Am)
When you're high in the sky
G A G
So, come on down
Come on down
Chorus 1:
[ D A ] x2
We're coming down to the ground
There's no better place to go
G (D) A
We've got snow up on the mountains
D A
We've got rivers down below
[ D A ] x2
We're coming down to the ground
We hear the birds sing in the trees
G (D) A
And the land will be looked after
D A
We send the seeds out in the breeze
[ G A ] x2
Verse 2:
Did you think you'd escaped from routine
By changing the script and the scene?
Despite all you made of it
You're always afraid
Of the change
You've got a lot on your chest
Well, you can come as my guest
So come on down
Come on down
Chorus 1.
Bridge: [ G
Like the fish in the ocean
A ] x8
We felt at home in the sea
We learned to live off the good land
Learned to climb up a tree
Then we got up on two legs
But we wanted to fly
When we messed up our homeland
We set sail for the sky
Chorus 1.
Chorus 2: (just [ D A ] x8)
We're coming down
Coming down to Earth
Like babies at birth
Coming down to Earth
We're gonna find new priorities
These are extraordinary qualities
(You find on Earth)
Down to Earth
