The Greatest - Cat Power
[Verse #1] (C Am Em Em x2) - F Dm G G - 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] (C Am Em Em x3) - (F Dm G G 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 C Am
For the lead and the dregs Em Em
in my bed been sleepin' - …
Lower me down, pin me in, secure the
grounds - For the later parade
[Intro]
[Verse #2] C Am Em Em
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] F Dm
secure the grounds - … G G
For the lead and the dregs in my bed been
sleepin' in - For the later parade
[Intro] (x2) [Verse #1] [Outro] F Dm G
