C               Em       F             G
I'll be in the back, and I don't need the help
    C                 Em       F            G
I'm good here in the back; I'm good all by myself
    F
I'm busy taking stock of all the things that I forgot
    F                                                  Em7
And making mental notes of just exactly where I lost the plot


[Verse 2]
  C                Em           F          G
I stuck around too long feeling sorry for myself
  C          Em           F                  G
A disinvited guest rifles through the bathroom shelf
    F
I'm searching for some disbelief that I can still suspend
    F                                                     Em7
But never mind the furthermore, the plea is self-defense a-gain


[Chorus]
F        Dm     G       Em     Am
Then the people came to talk me down
    F          G
And I got some advice
F        Dm     G       Em     Am
Then the people came to talk me down
    F            G
But I don't need advice
 Fm       C
I'm down


[Verse 3]
C           Em       F              G
Later in my car I considered what you said
    C               Em       F                G
I'm good here in my car; I'm good with what you said
    F
And I'd be shouting out to you, but I was mighty hoarse
F                                                             Em7
Talk you through the finer points and issues much too small to force


[Chorus]
F        Dm     G       Em     Am
Then the people came to talk me down
    F          G
And I got some advice
F        Dm     G       Em     Am
Then the people came to talk me down
    F            G
But I don't need advice
 Fm       C
I'm down
