D                       G              D
Lying on the floor and staring at the ceiling,
 G   D        Asus4   A
ooh,baby, you let me down.
  D                    G                   D
Crying to myself and trying to shake this feeling,
 G   D        Asus4   D
ooh baby, you let me down.
 
[chorus]

     G           D         G           D
You let me down easy, you let me down light,
     G                           Asus4       A
it really gets me down, but you let me down right.
     G           G/F#        Em           Bm
You set me down gentle, you let me down slow,
      G               G/F#       Asus4  A      D   Dsus4
it's gonna take some time before I can let you go.

[verse]

  D                        G              D
Floating on the ceiling, staring at the floor,
  G            D      Asus4          A
looking from above at what we had before.
         D                          G              D
I could hear your motor humming, I wanted you to stay,
    G               D             Asus4          D    
but I could see it coming from a hundred miles away. 

[verse]

 D                    G             D
Lying in the grass, staring at the sun,
 G               D       A                D
burning out the memory that you were the one.
 D                        G              D
Trying to pretend that I didn't feel a thing,
 D         G           D             A             D
but it's feeling as familiar as the simple song I sing. 

[chorus]
     G           D         G           D
You let me down easy, you let me down light,
     G                           Asus4       A
it really gets me down, but you let me down right.
     G           G/F#        Em           Bm
You set me down gentle, you let me down slow,
      G               G/F#       Asus4  A      D   Dsus4
it's gonna take some time before I can let you go.

[middle eight]

     Bm                       
You set me down proper, you said the right things.
     Em
The sun was coming up, they were waiting in the wings
     Bm                                            E
The sun was going down, you were packing up your clothes,
             G               G/F#     A            D   Dsus4
You said,"I hate to let you down but,babe,I gotta go!

[verse]

 D                       G         D
Lying in the back seat, eyes shut tight,
 D         G             D            A               D 
tired of staring at the road so I'm stopping for the night.
       D                              G              D 
I can hear your motor humming so I'm covering some ground,
 G    D         A      D     G    D         A      D
ooh, baby, you let me down, ooh, baby, you let me down.
