How about a sad song to help me get further down
So down like I'm drowning, so down like I'm dying
How about a song to pull the rug from under me
When I was OK, when I was sane
When I found my way, yeah
How about a warning when the body's already dowsed
And It's ready for burning, to late to learn
How about a reunion when everybody's gone away
They don't want to see you
They don't want to find out that you're doing OK
Will you be the first one when things get me down
Will you be the first one to bring me around
Resurrect my sense of believing
Cause' I sure could use the feeling
Got to get a handle, got to climb up another rung
I'm tired of being down, I don't want to drown
I'm gonna walk, gonna walk, like a walking time bomb
I don't want to go off, but I will if I'm forced to run
Will you be the first one when things get me down
Will you be the first one to bring me around
Resurrect my sense of believing
'Cause I sure could use the feeling
Something in the way I feel, makes me want to run
There's something in the way you lead me
That stop's my head from making my body go
How about a sad song to make me get further down
Got to get ahead got to climb another rung
Will you be the first one when things get me down
Will you be the first one to bring me around
Resurrect my sense of healing A Bm 'Cause I sure could use it
Will you be the first one when things get me down
Will you be the first one to bring me around
Resurrect my sense of believing
'Cause I sure could use the feeling
