Let Us Down Easy
Ryan Adams

In all my life mercy
Hasn't known my name this well
Like how every sea filters out
And leads us gently to a creek
We sit around

Some of us are strong
But the rest of us are weak

So let us down if you must
But let us down easy, Lord
Let us down easy, Lord
Ooh, let us down

In patches of pink clouds, thick smoke
It comes rising off the hillside slopes
Down here in this neighborhood
It's just the dumps with cars iced up
Perfect for writing on if you're wearing gloves

Every season I spend alone
Feels like a thousand
To my heart and in my soul

So let me down if you must
But let us down easy, Lord
Let us down easy, Lord
Ooh, let us down

Let us down, let us down, let us down
Let us down, let us down, let us down

Instead of praying I tell God these jokes
He must be tired of himself so much
He must be more than disappointed
Christmas comes as we eat alone
And pretty girl around sound pretty bore

Who takes your order, she yells it
And she cries alone in the back room
Once it stops then she smiles

So let her down if you must
But let us down easy, Lord
Let us down easy, Lord
Let us down easy, Lord

Ooh, let us down
(Let us down, let us down, let us down)
Let us down easy, Lord
(Let us down, let us down, let us down)

Let us down
(Let us down, let us down, let us down)
Let us down easy, Lord
(Let us down, let us down, let us down)

Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy

Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
