G
Coming down from the mountain
         D
I have seen the high and mighty

I will go again someday
                        G
But for now I'm coming down

Coming down from the mountain
        D
I have seen the lofty glory

I will go again someday
                        G
But for now I'm coming down

[Chorus]
        C
I have seen the information
         D
On the lighter side of dumbness
        C
I have heard the new statistics
          D
And the stomping on the ground
          G
Picking slowly up the rockslide
           C
One thing always seems apparent

If the climb becomes too much
        D             G
I can always turn around

[Verse 2]
G
Waking up from my slumber
       D
To misunderstand another

Though they call it terra firma
                         G
It dissolves beneath my feet

Looking through a pile of garbage
           D
For some worthless piece of paper

That's been hidden there for me
                       G
To give meaning to my day

[Chorus]
        C
I have seen the information
         D
On the lighter side of dumbness
        C
I have heard the new statistics
          D
And the stomping on the ground
          G
Picking slowly up the rockslide
           C
One thing always seems apparent

If the climb becomes too much
        D             G
I can always turn around

[Verse 3]
G
Going down to the desert
       D
To the dirty filthy desert

I'll be crawling through the sand
                       G
For at least a couple days

Going down to the desert
           D
There are things there worth avoiding

And it always makes me cross
                            G
When those things get in my way

[Chorus]
        C
I have seen the information
         D
On the lighter side of dumbness
        C
I have heard the new statistics
          D
And the stomping on the ground
          G
Picking slowly up the rockslide
           C
One thing always seems apparent

If the climb becomes too much
        D             G
I can always turn around
