(x2)
[Verse]
C G Em G
If I told you I thought you were the son of God
C G Em G
You would spit in my face with a wink and a nod
C G Am C
Let everybody know how you shrugged it off
Em G C D G
But holy shit, how good you would look on a cross
C G Em G
In a few years’ time I wonder how you will tell
C G Em G
Every turn in the tale of how you found yourself
C G Am C
You were waiting for you on a cloud somewhere
Em G C D G
But it wasn’t your fault if no one could follow you there
[Chorus]
C
And when you come down
Em
If you ever come down
Am/A Am/B C
Make sure you pick the right circles
D D7
When you ask around
C
And if you don't hear
Em
Exactly what you'd hoped
Am/A Am/B C
Make sure you laugh the loudest
D
Like you were in on the joke
C Em
Am D
C Em D
[Verse]
C G Em G
And if you bowed out now, I know you know you’d be missed
C G Em G
The man who loved every woman that he ever kissed
C G Am C
He unraveled himself all in the name of art
Em G C D G
With a voice from the bottom of everybody else’s hearts
[Chorus]
C
And when you come down
Em
If you ever come down
Am/A Am/B C
Make sure you pick the right circles
D D7
When you ask around
C
And if you don't hear
Em
Exactly what you'd hoped
Am/A Am/B C
Make sure you laugh the loudest
D
Like you were in on the joke
[Solo]
Em Am Em D

[Verse]
N.C.
When you finally look will you feel some relief
N.C.
To see the tight-lipped smile that’s hanging on me
N.C.
But I’m just hiding all the blood from the tongue that I bit
N.C.
And I’ll be damned if the devil ever really needs an advocate
