{ambient felt piano chord rolls} {subtle vinyl static hiss} {sparse
fingerpicked acoustic guitar intro} (humm-mmm-mmm)
What will you say when the time comes?
What will you do when no one looks up to you?
What will you say,
do, when you down to the ground?
{warm electric
bass enters} {brushed snare backbeat} When the shadows grow long on your
face
And the applause leaves without a trace
What will you say
when your crown hits the floor?
(what will you say)
{soaring pedal steel swell} {full drum kit entry with dynamic
lift} When your reflection is hard to face
And your accomplishments
vanish in space What will you do
when you down to the ground?
{acoustic guitar strumming pattern intensifies} When the shadows grow long on your
face
And the applause leaves without a trace
What will you say
when your crown hits the floor?
(ohhh, what will you say) {climax with crying pedal
steel guitar}
When you down to the ground...
(what will you do) (down to the ground) {music fades to quiet
felt piano and tape hiss} {final
lingering acoustic guitar
pluck}
