THE LIGHTNING SEEDS: The Nearly Man Intro and Verse: Dm F C G Down here at the bottom when you're staring at the top With a headful of ideas, I'm only flesh and blood On an eiderdown of glory and a pillow of desire Drifting on an ocean and the waves wash through my mind

^FSomething^Dm haunts us, ki^Amcks the stars from our skies ^FBlows the^Dm lights ^Amout with a whisper and sighs If ^Fyou'r^Ge dow^Amn, down, I'm down, down And when ^Gyou^F're down,^Am down, I'm down, down

Well I was nearly me and you were nearly you The nearly man was nothing, he was never any use Beaten down by generations of generations beaten down There's nothing I can promise that my conscience will allow --
