CAPO II


INTRO: D  A7  G   D  A7  G

  D                      A7                         G
I just dropped in 'cause I could use a friend and a little bit of consolation
    D                            A7                 G
I'm hangin' by a thread from the southern end of my rope
       D                      A7            Bm            G
If you really wanna know I'll do my best to explain my situation
Em                                A7
Maybe I can find the words if the tears don't get me first


CHORUS:
                D                                A
It's kinda like fallin' from the sky when you're up a mile high
         G   G/F#        G
And your parachute won't open
                 D                             A                           G
It's kinda like clingin' to the bottom of the bottom When the bottom drops out
    D          A               Bm               G
The only way I know to say how bad her leavin' hurts
                   D        A7      G           D
It's kinda like a heartache,  only worse, only worse


INTRO


It wasn't my first brush with love but this one was the deepest
Yeah I've been blue but this time it's closer to black
I swore I'd never get hurt again but here I am in pieces
When this one broke my heart, that was just the start


CHORUS


BRIDGE:
                Bm-Bm/A      Em   A
It's kinda like bein'    cut open
           G                   D
Kinda like bein' burned at the stake
            Bm      Bm/A   Em    G
Kinda like drownin' in the ocean
                A7             N/C
Knowin' there's no help on the way


(KEY CHANGE)


CHORUS:
                E                                B
It's kinda like fallin' from the sky when you're up a mile high
         A   A/G#        A
And your parachute won't open
           E                             B                            A
Kinda like clingin' to the bottom of the bottom when the bottom drops out
    E          B               C#m             A
The only way I know to say how bad her leavin' hurts
                   E        B7      A           E
It's kinda like a heartache,  only worse, only worse
