Mat Kearney - Down: chords

Dm                     A#
It took his breath away, holding the bank page
F                          C6
He got the letter, they're going to take
the house away
Dm                      A#
About to have a daughter, he yells it in the air
F                         C6                    A#
Feeling the weight of the world that just don't care

He lit a cigarette felt in on his lip
Driving home on a long road with regret
He pulls the window down shouts it out loud
Pushing the pedal and praying lord help us now
He’s looking for a reason watching the sun
coming down

Chorus:
                     Dm                   A#
Can you hear when we call, there when we fall?
              F                 C
Standing our backs against the wall
           Dm            A#
Top of our lungs, hallelujah
                F              C
Where pain and love bleed into one
          Dm       A#         F
Baby when all you see is darkness
 C
Coming down now
Dm     A#           F
We all need forgiveness
C
Coming round now
Dm       F
(Oh, oh, oh oh...)
C
Coming down now

It was Monday night under the street lights
She’s turning seventeen in seven nights
Out on the fairgrounds walking in monotone
She kicks a bottle as empty as her soul
On the road alone in a house that’s half home
They give her pills just to kill when she
feels alone
She’s looking for a reason watching the
sun coming down

Chorus

A#
Take these broken streets
                    C
Take these broken dreams
Hold my hand like we were walking free
A#
Tell me it will change I see it in your face
C
The hope the fear the love the faith

I’m working late again slaving to make the rent
I’m slanging coffee with dreams heavy as cement
They’re coming one by one the face of falling love
I write a song with a prayer as I slide the cup
