The Greatest - Cat Power

[Verse #1] (D Bm F#m F#m x2) - G Em A A - 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] (D Bm F#m F#m x3) - (G Em A A 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     D  Bm

For the lead and the dregs           F#m F#m

    in my bed been sleepin' - …

Lower me down, pin me in, secure the

    grounds - For the later parade

                                   [Intro]

[Verse #2] D Bm F#m F#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] G Em

    secure the grounds - …            A  A

For the lead and the dregs in my bed been

    sleepin' in - For the later parade


[Intro] (x2) [Verse #1] [Outro] G Em A
