Get Down(E on gitar or Em uke(0402)/D/C/Cm)

I’ve been feeling pretty shitty today
It’s what you could call one of those days
I guess I got out of bed the wrong way
Never shoulda slept with my head facing West

I think about posting a sob story 
And I think unhelpful thoughts like ‘what’s wrong with me’
And ‘I really should have grown out of this, what a mess’
And in the end I send a friend a text/message 

And I say I feel overwhelmed and they say I’ll come over and help 
And they come over and we do some cleaning together 
And I play them this song and they say wow I’m important now
And we laugh and embrace and I’m feeling much better 
D/C
I get down sometimes
When there’s no one around
So come round sometime
I don’t wanna feel downright down
I can cope
I got a long and strong and beautiful rope
And tho I’m nowhere near the end of it
It’s so clear that friends have benefits

So come on over we can do some yoga 
Listen to music talk about the future 
I’ll make some food that’s healthy and tasty
Let’s go for a walk and talk about sex baby

I get down I get down
I get down so downright down
And tho I could lively up myself 
It feels real good to have some help
When it seems it’s just my luck and I’m unmotivated
And I’m feeling stuck and overcomplicate it 
Will you be the mate that gets me up?

You get me up you get me on up
You get me back on the scene
You’re like a loving machine
Telling me I’m a fabulous powerful queen bee
And you know, all this that you do for me
Well I’ll be there for you too if you need me to be

Thanks be to the mates that pick us up

Out-of-the-box, right in your face! Lyrical blows to the jaw and some melody kicks to the groin.
