[intro] B B A x2
(hold) Start
[verse 1]
B A
Afternoon see a guy with rubies on his head
B A
And he's shifting like, shifting like he was dead
B A
And he's hearing something, she never said
G A B
On his way back home under his bed
[Chorus]
B G A
When the weight comes down
B G A
When the weight comes down
[verse 2]
B A
In the nights girl who doesn't mind her ragged sleaves
B A
Know that someone soon, is gonna grieve
B A
And a man he tells her a story, she just can't believe
G A B
Called "Adam never could do right by Eve"
[chorus]
B G A
When the weight comes down
B G A
When the weight comes down
B G A
When the weight comes down
F# A
Down on you ,down on me
Em
And a girl walks by burning bush
G
And she asks what's gone wrong here man
A
And he smiles and says "open wide wide wide"
[Verse 3]
B A
In my dreams candy coated train comes to my door
B A
With a little girl I can't have anymore
B A
You know a letter washes to the shore
G A B
That I cannot read and probably ignore
[Chorus]
B G A
When the weight comes down
B G A
When the weight comes down
B G A
When the weight comes down
B G A
When the weight, when the weight comes down
B G A
Down on me , down on me, down on me
B G A
Oh no I cannot breathe ,I cannot breathe oh no
B G A
Well get out, get out ,get out ,get out no no oh no
B G A
Oh no, oh no , oh no , no , no ,no
