I Am Down

G----------------------------------------|
D--------------------------5--7--5--7--5-|
A--5--7--5--7--5--7--5--7--3--3--3--3--3-|

G--4---5---7--|
D--5---5---7--|
A--5---3---5--|
E--3----------|
G C5 D5

G
You tellin lies thinking I can't see

You can't cry 'cos you're laughing at me
C5
I'm down
(I'm really down)
G5
I'm down
(down on the ground)
C5
I'm down
(I'm really down)
C5 / / G5
How can you laugh when you know I'm down

How can you laugh when you know I'm down
