Roger McGuinn You Bowed Down written by Elvis Costello

Eb Eb/D Cm Ab Fm

I suppose you're entitled to know why I'm making contacts

Ab Eb Fm Bbsus Bb

With acquaintances scattered all over the land

Eb Eb/D Cm Ab Fm

I'd promise you now and again that I'd honor the contract

Ab Eb Fm Bbsus Bb

If it hadn't crumbled away in my hand

Ab Bb Fm Bb

Well we broke that vow independently now

F Cm Ab Ab/G Fm

But I don't know why you absolutely deny

Eb Eb/D Cm Bb Ab Bb

You bowed down you bowed down

Eb Eb/D Cm Bb Ab Bb

You bowed down you bowed down

Eb Eb/D Cm Ab Fm

When you first looked away I might say it was really a kindness

Ab Eb Fm Bbsus Bb

It must have hurt to see how dreams sour

Eb Eb/D Cm Ab Fm

Now they say that justice and love are the next thing to blindnesss

Ab Eb Fm Bbsus Bb

Well you're getting plenty of both of them now

Ab Bb Fm Bb

And so you parade where appointments are made

F Cm Ab Ab/G Fm

And never meant to be kept unless you accept

Eb Eb/D Cm Bb Ab Bb

You bowed down you bowed down

Eb Eb/D Cm Bb Ab Bb

You bowed down you bowed down

Ab Bb Ab

You'll value the burnt amber of falling leaves

Bb

And you'll long to delay

Ab Bb

You'll feel their breath as they whisper

Ab

It won't hurt you to betray

Eb Eb/D Cm Bb Ab Bb

If you just bow down just bow down

Eb Eb/D Cm Bb Ab Bb

Just bow down just bow down

Eb Eb/D Cm Ab Fm

And now every time that we meet on the edge of hysteria

Ab Eb Fm Bbsus Bb

You're helping them sell off some new party line

Eb Eb/D Cm Ab Fm

I remember a time when you would have seemed so superior

Ab Eb Fm Bbsus Bb

Now you say will you please meet this good friend of mine

Ab Bb Fm Bb

So your in demand as long as you'll kiss their hand

F Cm Ab Ab/G Fm

But all the applause is for their name not yours

Eb Eb/D Cm Bb Ab Bb

You bowed down you bowed down

Eb Eb/D Cm Bb Ab Bb

You bowed down you bowed down
