Chorus:
      D#m                                      C#
If I told you I was down I was down would you help me
D#m                                      C#      F#
Told you I was down I was down would you lift me up
                     B
I need your strength I’ll be up someday
     D#m                                      C#      D#m
If I told you I was down I was down would you lift me up

D#m
I have this human love
                  C#   D#m
It shattered once or twice
D#m
It pulls me up and down
D#m                  C#
If it’s filled with jagged ice
F#                    B                     D#m
Everyday I’m wanting something I ain’t havin’
D#m
I have this human heart
           C#    D#m
My mother told me so
D#m                                         C#
She said this shit can go to pieces boy be careful
     F#                    B                     D#m
But you and me and me and you got something magic
D#m
So I say to you

Chorus - x2

        F#          B   D#m       F#
Lift me up, lift me up,   lift me up, lift me up

I have this human love
D#m
My mother told me so
D#m                                                    C#
She said this world could bring you down so don’t be swinging low
      F#                    B                      D#m
Cause you and me and me and you got something magic
