[Verse 1]
Bb Gm
I was running off trying not to fall,
Dm
someone said excuse man you got a call
Bb Gm Dm
This voice I never heard before was on the other end
Bb Gm
It was the telephone lady and I needed to pay my bill,
Dm
she said in soft and open trill
Bb Gm Dm
I fell so hard but I knew soon she’d be gone again
Eb F Bb Bb/A Gm
Incoming isolation, thank god for predestination
Eb F Bb
You know me I always take it in stride
[Verse 2]
Bb Gm
Do you wear your hair long, or keep it short,
Dm
do you live in Utah or off the coast of Cape Horn
Bb Gm Dm
We could meet up on a drawbridge somewhere in between
Bb Gm
Or hell, I’ll just come your way,
Dm
our first date can be on the Champs-Elysees,
Bb Gm Dm
then later you can break my heart on a stranger’s trampoline
Eb F Bb Bb/A Gm
Incoming isolation, thank god for masturbation
Eb F Bb
You know me I always take it in stride
[Chorus]
Eb F Bb
Just let me down easy, let me down good
Bb/A Gm Eb
I saw it coming, even before you could
F Bb
So let me down easy and I’ll be gone
[Verse 3]
Bb Gm
While I’m off in my unruly dream,
Dm
you’re talking about some new unlimited plan
Bb Gm
And I’m walkin back to our houseboat on the Thames
Dm
when I found you in bed with another man
Bb Gm
I shake my head, I should’ve known,
Dm
I walk backwards hoping that time will come along
Bb Gm Dm
You say is there anything else that I can help you with
[Chorus]
(single strums)
Eb F Bb
Just let me down easy, let me down good
Bb/A Gm Eb
I saw it coming, even before you could

So let me down easy and I’ll be gone

why didn’t you say something,

why didn’t you say, why didn’t you say

I quit my job and we were ready for the world
