Lyrics

[Intro]
| C | Am | Em | - |
| C | Am | Em | - |

[Verse 1]
C       Am          Em
 Once I wanted to be  the greatest
C           Am                   Em
 No wind or waterfall could stall  me
    F                 Dm
And then came the rush  of the flood
G
 Stars at night turned deep to dust
           C
Melt me down

[Interlude]
        Am
Into big  black armor
Em            C        Am
  Leave no trace of grace

[Verse 2]
             Em
Just in your honor
           C
Lower me down
   Am
To culprit south
Em
  Make 'em wash a space in town
          F
For the lead
           Dm
And the dregs of my bed
          G
I've been sleepin'
           F
Lower me down
       Dm
Pin me in
              G
Secure the grounds
                  C Am Em
For the later parade

[Verse 3]
C       Am          Em
 Once I wanted to be  the greatest
C             Am      Em
 Two fists of solid rock
C                Am
With brains that could explain
   Em
Any  feeling
           F
Lower me down
        Dm
Pin me in 
              G
Secure the grounds
          F
For the lead
           Dm
And the dregs of my bed
          G
I've been sleepin'
                  C
For the later parade

[Interlude]
        | Am | Em |
| - | C | Am | Em |
| - |

[Outro]
C      Am                Em
 Once I  wanted to be the  greatest
C           Am                 Em
 No wind or waterfall could stall me
    F                 Dm
And then came the rush  of the flood
G
 Stars at night turned deep to dust
F Dm G
