when you're down low don't feel under
         G   Am7          G    Am7
and the thunder and the lightening

aren't as frightening when you're coked out
       Am7 Em        Am7 Em
Heartbreak city ain't so pretty
            Am7 Em         Am7 Em
when you're down and nitty gritty

aren't as frightening when you're coked out
       Am7 Em        Am7 Em

when you're down and nitty gritty
