Intro: Dm  C  Gm  Bb

Verse:
Dm                                         C
Let me down gently, that's what I think I need
             Gm                                    Bb
But when you let me down gently it still feels it hard, hard
Dm                                               C
Turn me into someone good, that?s what I really need
Gm                                                Bb
Tell me that I?m someone good so we?re not so far apart, apart

Chorus:
  Gm               Bb             Dm                 C
I hope it doesn't seem like I?m young, foolish and green
  Gm               Bb                   Dm                 C
Let me in for a minute, you're not my life but I want you in it

Interlude: Dm  C  Gm  Bb

Verse:
Dm                                      C
Set me up slowly, that?s what you do to me
        Gm                                  Bb
Oh you set me up slowly, now I can?t come down, down
Dm                                         C
Let you down gently, that's what I think you need
           Gm                                                 Bb
But when I let you down you're empty and you try to hide your frowns, frowns

Chorus:
  Gm               Bb             Dm                 C
I hope it doesn't seem like I?m young, foolish and green
  Gm               Bb                   Dm                 C
Let me in for a minute, you're not my life but I want you in it
  Gm               Bb              Dm                 C
And I hope it's sinking in, left behind your perfect skin
  Gm                          Bb          Dm                      C
There?s a part of you that?s free and I know there?s a place for me

But when you let me down gently it still feels it hard, hard
Dm                                               C
Turn me into someone good, that?s what I really need
