The Greatest - Cat Power

[Verse #1] (E C#m G#m G#m x2) - A F#m B B - X

Once, I wanted to be - The greatest

No wind or waterfall could stop me - …

And then came the rush of the flood

Stars at night turned you to dust


[Chorus] (E C#m G#m G#m x3) - (A F#m B B x2)

Melt me down to big black armor - …

Leave no trace of grace

Just in your honor                 [Intro]

Lower me down the culprit south       (x2)

You can watch the space and time     E  C#m

For the lead and the dregs           G#m G#m

    in my bed been sleepin' - …

Lower me down, pin me in, secure the

    grounds - For the later parade

                                   [Intro]

[Verse #2] E C#m G#m G#m

Once I wanted to be     - The greatest

Two fists of solid rock - …

With brains that could explain any feeling


Lower me down, pin me in,    [Chorus] A F#m

    secure the grounds - …            B  B

For the lead and the dregs in my bed been

    sleepin' in - For the later parade


[Intro] (x2) [Verse #1] [Outro] A F#m B
