| F | Bb C | F | F |

[Verse 1]
    F
I remember how your eyes used to light up
Bb                    Gm
 Over promises that I made
            C
But for the first time in my life I know now
       Bb    C       F
How it feels  to be afraid

[Verse 2]
F                     Bb        F
I don't know what I'd do if you go away
                                 Bb
This will sure be one lonely ol' town
Gm     Bb       C          F         Bb
 For a man's so busy going up in the world
        Gm                       C     C
That he couldn't see love coming down
C7          F    Bb  F
Love coming down

[Verse 3]
C    F
 I remember all the times you told me
Bb                          Gm
Love's all that mattered to you
            C
And looking back now, wondering how I believed
  Bb                C          F
I had things more important to do

[Verse 4]
F
I can see how I must have looked to you
                             Bb
Like some fool on a merry-go-round
Gm               C          F         Bb
Another man's so busy going up in the world
       Gm                       C
I just couldn't see love comin' down (oo' ooh)
            F     Bb  F  F
Love comin' down

[Bridge]
C                                 Bb
Can't you see how everything I've learned
              C             F     C
Would just be wasted if you leave me?
   F
If you'll just give it one more try
  C                                  F    C
I swear I'll always be here when you need me

[Verse 5]
           F               Bb          F
If you can find it in your heart to forgive me
                                     Bb
I'll try to keep both my feet on the ground
Gm         Bb     C          F         Bb
 Forgive a man so busy going up in the world
        Gm                       C
That he couldn't see love comin' down
            F
Love comin' down

[Outro]
C  F                 F   F
   Love comin' down
