1. I sing myself to sleep a
song from my darkest hour,
D G A
secrets I can’t
keep inside of the day.
D

I swing from high to deep extremes of sweet
and sour,
D
G A
hope that God
exists, I hope, I pray.
D G A
Drawn by the under tow, my life is out of control,
D G A
I believe this wave will bear my weight, so
let it flow.
D G A
Oh, sit down, sit down next to me !
D G A
Sit down, down in sympathy.

2. Now I’m relieved to hear that you’ve been to some far out places,
D G A
it’s
hard to carry on when you feel all alone.
D G A
Now I’ve swung back down
again, it’s worse than it was before,
D G A
if I
hadn’t seen such riches, I could live with being p oor.
D G A
Oh, sit down, sit down next to me !
D
G A
Sit down, down in sympathy.

+ Those who feel a breast
of sadness, sit down next to me,
D G A
those
who find they’ve touched by madness, sit down next to me,
D
G A
those
who find themselves ridiculous, sit down next to me :
D G A
In love, in fear, in hate, in
tears, in love, in fear, in hate, in tears,
D G A
in
love, in fear, in hate, in tears, in love, in fear, in hate,
