B                                       A 
Afternoon, see a guy with rubies on his head 
        B                                   A 
and he's shifting like, shifting like he was dead 
        B                           A 
and he's hearing something she never said 
       G              A         B 
on his way back home, under his bed 
  
CHORUS: 
         B  G         A 
When the weight comes down 
         B  G         A 
When the weight comes down 
  
In the night there's a girl who doesn't mind her ragged sleeves 
knowing someone soon is gonna grieve 
and a man he tells her a story, she just don't believe 
called "adam never could do right by eve." 
  
        B  G         A 
and the weight comes down 
        B  G         A 
and the weight comes down 
        B  G         A 
and the weight comes down 
        F#           A 
down on you, down on me 
                        Em 
and a girl walks by the burning bush 
                 G 
she asks "what's gone wrong here man?" 
                           A 
and he smiles, says, "Open wide, wide, wide" 
  
In my dreams, a candy coated train comes to my door 
with a little girl, I can't have anymore 
you know a letter washes up to the shore 
that I cannot read and I probably should ignore 
  
when the weight comes down 
when the weight comes down 
when the weight comes down
