Down To Earth Chords - Barenaked Ladies






Intro: G  D  C } x2

G  -  D  -  F  -  Cadd2
Some people are just all show
Well I dont mind that if the show is worth watching
But its all bark and no tree
Whats more ironic than a hippie in Versace
Its all peace and love and limousines
You got the right message but the wrong intentions
How can you be touchy feely when youve lost touch
I think its time we had a little intervention with ya

Cadd2  -  G  -  Cadd2  -  D
Hey now, wake up 
And lose the makeup

The closest friends are the kind you pay
If they dont balance straight then the door will keep revolving
Its a tight circle of the blessed few
Howd ya manage that with the recipe involving
Just a pinch of sweetness and a cup of angst
Mix it all up, and you're the all purpose flour
Though it looks delicious, something tastes bad
I dont think Id last a half an hour with ya

Hey now, wake up and lose the makeup
She makes you want to know her
When you dont know what its worth
Now you really want to show her
How shes just so down to earth

Well its like making love to a TV
Its kinda novel but its miles away from satisfying
Your hangers-on say its a good deal
But what youre selling theres no chance in hell that Ill be buying

Hey now, wake up and lose the makeup
She makes you want to know her
When you dont know what its worth
Now you really want to show her
How shes just so down to earth
She makes you want to know her
When you dont know what its worth
Now you really want to show her
How shes just so down to earth
