C    
I’m lying here on the floor    
              Cmaj7    
Just like the man on the yellow cone    
   C7    
I guess the floor was wet    
       F    
So I’m cold and I’m all alone    
          C    
Cuz I was running down the stairs    
         Cmaj7    
I didn’t think that I could fall    
    C7    
But gravity took over me    
      F    
And I crumpled like a ball    
       C         Cmaj7   C7          F         F7    
But if you would pick me up, I’d be obliged    
C               Cmaj7   C7      F    F7    
Dust me off and push my hair aside    
           C                          Cmaj7    
Well it’s later than I thought, and I thought it was pretty late    
        C7                        F    
I guess everyone’s asleep, wonder why I’m still awake    
        C                              Cmaj7    
I could fall asleep right here with my hands under my head    
          C7    
There’s a body in the stairwell    
         F    
Call the cops, I think she’s dead    
       C         Cmaj7   C7           F         F7    
But if you would pick me up, I’d be obliged    
C               Cmaj7    C7      F    F7    
Dust me off and push my hair aside    
     
C Cmaj7 C7 F    
C Cmaj7 C7 F    
     
C    
Well I can’t lie    
   Cmaj7    
Perhaps I didn’t trip    
       C7    
I been having troubles lately    
          F    
And I got something to admit    
           C    
See, I was standing at the top    
Cmaj7    
Thinkin’ bout the earth    
             C7    
It’s been so hard to just keep livin’    
     F    
So I thought it might be worth it if    
 C        Cmaj7   C7           F         F7    
You would pick me up, I’d be obliged    
C               Cmaj7    C7    F    F7    
Dust me off and push my hair aside    
                  C    
And kiss me good-bye
