Up Up Down Down
Sometimes we fight. Sometimes it’s hard to take that too seriously, and sometimes everything good left the room long before you’re done breathing fire. This is all about a fun jazz pop feel, with a stick bass and competent (read not mine) harmonies.
Up up, down down
G/A Amin Fmaj Emin7
Too much of this swinging that we’ve been trying
Dmin Dmin Dmin C/E Fmaj
Too much of that crust that stays after the feelings gone-
Bb
You are my maya, but you leave me feeling dizzy
Dmin Dmin Eb Fmaj
Everytime you open your mouth, I close my eyes…
You say that you love me, but the tone is always changing
You say you want to hold me, as you fold your arms..
Everything is rosy, I’m sure that it will all work out…
But how many times have you said you loved me, just before you showed me out.
“Cmaj
And we are Up Up,
Cmaj/F
And we are down down,
Emin
And you are spinning,
Emin F G
And I am trying to stand
And we are Up up.
And we are down down,
And you are winning,
Living a life, you hadn’t planned”
Once you ask me for my hand, just as long as it isn’t cold,
And you fall apart in happiness, you fall apart, we fall apart…
Still we’ve never been fighters, and we’ve got too much going,
To not realize how, finer things await…
You have your passions, I have mine, we intertwine…
Talking about God, about Art, about love, about life, anything…
You tell me that you’re neutral, well you know that’s about to change,
Soon as you get used to anything, only finer things await…
“Chorus”
AbminMaj7
I still feel, just one step, step ahead of you,
You smile and assure me, of course baby, you know that’s not true.
And I fell months ago, or years, if we are being fair,
And I can’t help writing bad poems with the hopes of moving you.
“Chorus”
C Emin7b5 F Fmin Bb7
