            D                         G
Well, I was born inside a fire on the coattails of desire

      D                            A
I was orphaned in the flood, I was taken for a liar

               D                               G             E
My dreams came crashin' to the ground, I was defeated by the sound

        D             A             D     A     G
They go down, they go down, they go down, down, down

        D             A            |D     A |
They go down, they go down, they go down
[Verse 2]
              D                          G               
Well, I was denied and I was sold, I was kept out in the cold

                D                        A                 
Well, there was never any doubt that I believed what I was told

            D                                 G             E
But all the time that I was lookin' there was nothin' to be found

        D             A             D     A     G
They go down, they go down, they go down, down, down

They go down, they go down, they go down
[Verse 3]
              D                               G
Well, I never knew a single friend who didn't crumble in the end

         D                             A
I made a bargain for control, I didn't break, I didn't bend

           D                                    G              E
With every weapon that they found they tried to send me to the ground

        D             A             D     A     G
They go down, they go down, they go down, down, down

        D             A            |D     A |
They go down, they go down, they go down
[Verse 4]
              D                           G      
Well, I was invincible and weird, I was ignored and I was feared

        D                                  A
I stood all that I could stand until their faces disappeared

          D                          G            E
But I was only half alive, there was no one else around

        D             A             D     A     G
They go down, they go down, they go down, down, down

        D             A            |D    |
They go down, they go down, they go down
[Bridge]
  A                              Bm
I never cracked a smile, took my service all in town

A                         Bm
Even when I swam to glory I was sure to drown

D                       A     Bm                      A
Break it off of my breakdown, break it off of my breakdown

D                       A     Bm                      A
Break it off of my breakdown, break it off of my breakdown

G
Lookatmenow, lookatmenow, lookatmenow, lookatmenow

A
Lookatmenow, lookatmenow, lookatmenow, lookatmenow

G
Lookatmenow, lookatmenow, lookatmenow, lookatmenow

A            B
Lookatmenow, lookatmenow

[Verse 5]
              E                       A
Well, I was incurable and vain, a lunatic out in the rain

      E                             B
I was beautiful and unctious, I was shackled to the chain

          E
And I was screened 'til they agreed

          A                  B
That only half the world was round

||:         E             B             E     B     A
    They go down, they go down, they go down, down, down

            E             B             E     B     A    :||
    They go down, they go down, they go down, down, down 

||: E                       B
    Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, 

    E           B           A    :||
    Down, down, down, down, down

E                       B
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, 

E           B           A
Down, down, down, down, down

        E             A             E
They go down, they go down, they go down
Charted by Dexex Many thanks to Nosalis for providing lyrics I couldn't seem to make out. Now, this chart is done. I hope. (My chord charts are intended to show how, as a rhythm guitarist, I play songs. I don't claim they are the "right" way. They are not tabs, which notate precisely how a song was played on a recording.)
