(Capo IV)

Am             G
 This night is cold in the kingdom
Em               F
 I can feel you fade away
Am                       G
From the kitchen to the bathroom sink
   Em               F
and Your steps keep me awake.
      Am
Don't cut me down, throw me out,
 G
leave me here to waste
  Em                    F
I once was a man with dignity and grace
        Am
Now I'm slipping through the cracks
        G
of your cold embrace
   Em              F
So please, please.
          Am
Could you find a way to

let me down slowly?
         Em
A little sympathy,
                F
I hope you can show me
       Am                       G
If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely
          Em
If you're leaving baby
             F
let me down slowly
             Am
Let me down, down, let me down, down
G
Let me down, let me down,
Em                   F
down, let me down, down, let me down
       Am                       G
If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely
          Em
If you're leaving baby
             F
let me down slowly

Am                  G
 Cold skin, drag my feet on the tile
Em                       F
 As I'm walking down the corridor
Am                    G
And I know we haven't talked in a while
Em                    F
So I'm looking for an open door.
      Am
Don't cut me down, throw me out,
   G
leave me here to waste
  Em                   F
I once was a man with dignity and grace
        Am
Now I'm slipping through the cracks
        G
of your cold embrace
Em              F
So please, please
          Am                        G
Could you find a way to let me down slowly?
         Em
