When Im Up I Cant Get Down Chords by Great Big Sea

              F                      C
I am the fountain of affection
                                   F
I'm the instrument of joy
                                               C*
And to keep the good times rolling
             F                 G
I'm the boy I'm the boy
                          F                            C
You know the world could be our oyster
                                            F
If you just put your trust in me
                                                      C*
Cause we'll keep the good times rolling
                F                    G
Wait and see, wait and see
                      Am     G     F     G
Oh wait and see

Am                                             G
His exaltation, a sweet disintegration
    F                                                    G
A few discolorations, then it comes along
Am                                       G
Up is why he chooses, the kisses and the bruises
                     F                                                   G
There ain't nothing he refuses, then it comes along
                   F                      C
It comes along and I am lifted
           F             C   G  (Very quick transition from 
to G)
I am lifted, I am lifted

(Chorus)
                F                      C
When I'm up I can't get down
                  F                     G
Can't get down, can't get level
                F                      C
When I'm up I cant get down
             F                           G
Get my feet back on the ground
                F                     C
When I'm up I can't get down
                 F                       G
Can't get down, can't get level
               F                       C
When I'm up I can't get down
               F                         G
Get my feet back on the ground...
