Chorus:
               G
When you come down
                 C
From your Ivory Tower
          G                      C
You will see how it really must be
C              G
When you come down, down
                 C
From your Ivory Tower
          G                      C
You will see how it really must be
D   C       G  C   D        G
To be like me, to see like me
C   D         G
To feel like me

C                                   G
Take a look at me I'm a poor man's son
C                         G
I never did no harm to no one
C                        G
You've got money in the bank
Em            D
I don't have none

Chorus:
When you come down
From your ivory tower
You will see how it really must be
When you come down, down, down
From your ivory tower
You will see how it really must be
To be like me
To see like me
To feel like me

       Em
You got  rose coloured glasses
     Bm
In a world that really thinks
C                 D         G
there's so much glamour to you
            Em
You've got opinions and judgements
Bm
About all kind of things
          C         D          G
That you don't know anything about

Don't you know the price I have to pay
Just to do everything I have to do?
Do you think that there is nothing to it?
You should try it sometime

Chorus:
When you come down, down, down
From your ivory tower
Oh you will see how it really must be
Oh when you come on down, down, down
From your ivory tower
Oh you will see how it really must be
To be like me
To see like me
To feel like me

To see like me
To feel like me
To see like me
To feel like me
