Chris Cornell: When I'm down
Soul/blues-kind of thing from the amazing "Euphoria Morning" album. Originally
in F major, I transposed it down to C major where you actually have a shot at singing it.

VERSE 2 - LYRICS
You say that midnight
opens its arms to me
leaving you alone,
and then I fly so far away,
until the light blurs my vision
and I have nowhere to roam.
I only love you when I'm down.
