Verse
        C     G         C     G 
he's a little boy and a burly man 
         Em             G 
shooting fingers on his hand 
           C     G    C      G 
there's an angry fire in his eyes 
      Em            G 
but a quiver in his side 
 
Chorus
       C     Em/C#    C     G 
if you understood the gravity 
       C     Em/C#     C      G 
as it pushes weight on top of me 
 
C G   Em   G

Verse
      C     G        C      G 
as he loses hair and gets around 
         Em                  G 
and his friends all let him down 
         C      G          C        G 
when the long long nights start to drag 
             Em             G 
he feels his being start to sag 
 
Chorus
       C     Em/C#    C     G 
if you understood the gravity 
       C       Em/C#     C      G 
as it pulls it all right out of me 
 
C G   Em   G 
C G  C G   Em   G 
 
Chorus
          C    Em/C#     C            G 
if you've ever seen the nights i have cried 
           C     Em/C#    C       G 
then you'd understand the reasons why 
       C     Em/C#    C     G 
if you understood the gravity 
       C     Em/C#         C      G 
as it pushes right down on top of me 
 
G   C 
and you will see the gravity 
G   C 
and you will see the man in me 
G   C 
and you will see just what I see
