[Verse 1] N.C. I got all night to remember you by, I got a half-packed bag and a wonderin' eye

N.C.                                            C
Gonna love you baby till the day I die, don't worry

          D7
It's just sometimes people get a little fed up, tired of not drinkin' from the lovin' cup

  D7                                             G
Gotta walk on my own like a little bitty pup and hurry

G
Yeah, it seem like every time I give my heart, a couple good years and the bullshit starts

                                          C
I did my best honey, played my part, it's over

        D7
Now I'm sittin' cross-legged in a heartache tree, knowin' damn well you ain't a' thinking about me

                                         G
Just a sad reminder of a used to be, I'm gone

[Chorus]

          C     C/B   Am    Am/G  D 
And we go down, down, down, down, down

C    C/B  Am   D/F# G
Love just left this town

[Verse 2]

G
If I had a dream, I guess I sold it, if I had a secret, Lord, I told it

                                           C
This here hand I never thought I'd fold it darlin'

        D7
Well, I paid my dues and I served my time, we had a good time but we never could rhyme

                                            G
Put up a buck just to get back a dime, it's gone

G
I remember a time when the mood was right, and you'd say go and we'd go all night

                                                     C
Now's it a bitch, and moan, and fuss, and fight, I'm tired babe

         D7
If you're ever in trouble, honey, I'll be there, but I'd rather be one than a mournful pair

                                           G
The blind can see that you don't care, I'm gone

[Chorus]

         C     C/B   Am    Am/G  D 
And we go down, down, down, down, down

C    C/B  Am   D/F# G
Love just left this town

[solo] [spoken] Oh, what have I done?......

G
I can't believe these things I said

I let a couple of bad years go to my head

                                            G
Without your love, I'd be old and dead, I'm sorry

     D7
It's getting hard to handle that lonesome sound, it's goodbye trouble, I'm homeward bound

                                                     G
You're the only good thing this old boy's found, I'm home

[Final Chorus]

         C     C/B   Am    Am/G  D 
And we go down, down, down, down, down   

C    C/B Am  D/F# G                      
Love is  back in  town

         C     C/B   Am    Am/G  D 
And we go down, down, down, down, down   

    C   C/B   Am    D/F# G
The one good  thing  I   found

[Instrumental to end]
