Intro: E  B  C#m (4x)

E         B            C#m
 I thought I heard you rake in the coals
E     B          C#m 
 Underneath this lonely man's soles
E         B         C#m
 Why can't you just let it all go?
E      B            C#m     
 Then I start to go down 


E       B         C#m
 I heard him say, 'life is a joke'
E         B            C#m
 His laugh burned like acid rain smoke
E         B         C#m
 Why can't you love what you don't know

CHORUS:
E      B            C#7   B     A
 Then I start to go down, down, down
C#7 B   A
Way too low
              C#7   B     A
I start to go down, down, down
C#7              B    A
You can't pull up anymore
                 C#7   B   A
Once you've gone down 
                      

C#7  B  A
Down, down, down, down 


E       B        C#m
 I heard me say, 'what is worth?'
E            B         C#m
 You just get pain for all your life's work
E         B      C#m
 I'll just crawl into my black hole

CHORUS:
E      B            C#7   B     A
 Then I start to go down, down, down
C#7 B   A
Way too low
              C#7   B     A
I start to go down, down, down
C#7              B    A
You can't pull up anymore
                 C#7   B     A
Once you've gone down, down, down
C#7 B   A
Way too low
              C#7   B     A
I start to go down, down, down
C#7            B    A
I can't pull up anymore 


C#7       B           A
Superman's covered in rust
          C#7    B    A
All of my dreams gone bust
               C#7        B
This time I've fallen down
              A
Stuck in this rut
               C#7 B   A
Maybe I'll try falling up
                C#7 B  A
Cos I've fallen far enough


C#7  B  A (2x)
CHORUS:
              C#7   B     A
I start to go down, down, down
C#7 B   A
Way too low
              C#7   B     A
I start to go down, down, down
C#7              B    A
You can't pull up anymore
                 C#7   B     A
Once you've gone down, down, down
C#7 B   A
Way too low
              C#7   B     A
I start to go down, down, down
C#7            B    A
I can't pull up anymore 
Once you've gone down
Once you've gone down, down, down
Once you've gone down
