Intro

Verse1

SUN SETS ´CROSS THE OCEAN

I´M A THOUSAND MILES FROM ANYWHERE

MY POCKETBOOK AND MY HEART BOTH JUST GOT STOLEN

AND THE SUN ACT LIKE SHE DON´T EVEN CARE

THE WIND BLOWS COLD WHEN YOU REACH THE TOP

 IT FEELS LIKE SOMEONES FACE IS STUCK TO THE BOTTOM OF MY SHOE

 I GOT A PLASTIC JESUS, A CORDLESS TELEPHONE FOR EVERY CORNER OF MY ROOM

GOT EVERYBODY BUT YOU TELLING ME WHAT TO DO

Chorus

BUT I´VE BEEN DOWN SO LOOOOOOOOOOOONG

OOH, IT CAN´T BE LONGER STIIIIIIIIIILL

I´VE BEEN DOWN SO LOOOOOOOOOOOONG

THAT THE END MUST BE DRAWING NEAR

I LOOK TO EVERYBODY BUT ME TO ANSWER MY PRAYERS

 TIL I SAW AN ANGEL IN A BATHROOM WHO SAID SHE SAW NO ONE WORTH SAVING

ANYWHERE

 AND A BLIND MAN ON THE CORNER SAID IT´S SIMPLE, LIKE FLIPPING A COIN

DON´T MATTER WHAT SIDE IT LANDS ON IF IT´S SOMEONE ELSE´S DIME

Chorus

BUT I´VE BEEN DOWN SO LOOOOOOOOOOONG

OOH, IT CAN´T BE LONGER STIIIIIIIIIIILL

I´VE BEEN DOWN SO LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG

THAT THE END MUST BE DRAWING NEAR

Bridge

JUST DRUMS)

I TAKE A TRIP, I CATCH A TRAIN, I CATCH A PLANE

I GOT A TICKET IN MY HAND, AND THE A FAT MAN TAKES MY MONEY

AND LIKE CATTLE WE ALL STAND

Chorus

BUT WE´VE BEEN DOWN SO LOOOOOOOOOOONG

OOH, IT CAN´T BE LONGER STIIIIIIIIIIILL

I´VE BEEN DOWN SO LOOOOOOOOOOONG

THAT THE END MUST BE

I KNOW THE END MUST BE

OH I KNOW THE END MUST BE DRAWING NEAR
