You Bowed Down

Eb    Eb/D       Cm             
I suppose you're entitled to 
          Ab      Fm
know why I'm making contacts
Ab                 Eb            
With acquaintances scattered all 
         Fm  Bbsus Bb
over the land
Eb         Eb/D Cm              
I'd promise you  now and again 
        Ab         Fm
that I'd honor the contract
Ab            Eb                 
If it hadn't crumbled away in my 
Fm Bbsus Bb
hand
Ab                 Bb   Fm      
Well we broke that vow 
     Bb
independently now
F                Cm  Ab       
But I don't know why you 
Ab/G  Fm
absolutely deny
          Eb  Eb/D Cm Bb         
You bowed down         you bowed 
Ab  Bb
down

You bowed down         you bowed
Ab  Bb
 down
Eb       Eb/D         Cm        
When you first looked away I 
              Ab       Fm
might say it was really a kindness
Ab           Eb                  
It must have hurt to see how 
   Fm  Bbsus Bb
dreams sour
Eb       Eb/D     Cm            
Now they say that justice and 
           Ab            Fm
love are the next thing to

         Fm   Bbsus Bb
both of them now
Ab         Bb      Fm
And so you parade  where 
                      Bb
appointments are made
F                     Cm   Ab    
And never meant to be kept unless

You bowed down         you bowed 
Ab  Bb
down

You bowed down         you bowed
Ab  Bb
 down
Ab               Bb          
You'll value the burnt amber of 
           Ab
falling leaves
                   Bb
And you'll long to delay
Ab                 Bb
You'll  feel their breath as they 
whisper
Ab
It won't hurt you to betray
       Eb  Eb/D Cm  Bb       Ab
If you just bow down         
       Bb
just bow down
Eb  Eb/D Cm  Bb       Ab       Bb
Just bow down         just bow down
Eb     Eb/D   Cm                
And now every time that we meet 
       Ab      Fm
on the edge of hysteria
Ab                   Eb          
You're helping them  sell off 
            Fm  Bbsus Bb
some new party line
Eb       Eb/D Cm                
I remember a time when you would
       Ab       Fm
 have seemed so superior
Ab                   Eb          
Now you say will you please meet

               Bb
you'll kiss their hand
F           Cm       Ab          
But all the applause is for their
 Ab/G      Fm
 name  not yours
          Eb  Eb/D Cm Bb         
You bowed down         you bowed 
Ab  Bb

         Eb  Eb/D Cm Bb         
You bowed down         you bowed
