Stairwell Lyrics

Julia Nunes Stairwell Lyrics

I worked these chords out on my ukulele (standard tuning). I hope they sound good on guitar!
Comments/constructive criticism appreciated.
Intro:
j7
j7
I??m lying here on the floor
Just like the man on the yellow cone
I guess the floor was wet
So I??m cold and I??m all alone
Cuz I was running down the stairs
I didn??t think that I could fall
But gravity took over me
And I crumpled like a ball
But if you would pick me up, I??d be obliged
Dust me off and push my hair aside
Well it??s later than I thought, and I thought it was pretty late
I guess everyone??s asleep, wonder why I??m still awake
I could fall asleep right here with my hands under my head
There??s a body in the stairwell
Call the cops, I think she??s dead
But if you would pick me up, I??d be obliged
Dust me off and push my hair aside
j7
j7
Well I can??t lie
Perhaps I didn??t trip
I been having troubles lately
And I got something to admit
See, I was standing at the top
Thinkin?? bout the earth
It??s been so hard to just keep livin??
So I thought it might be worth it if
You would pick me up, I??d be obliged
Dust me off and push my hair aside
And kiss me good-bye
