E A
I met a girl, a snowball in hell
Am G C D D#
She was as hard and as cracked as the Liberty Bell
E A
I got her to come on and move in with me
Am G C D G A B
And I said I'd find a better place we could spend eternity
C Bm A
Don't go down, don't go down
D G C G C G B
Stay with me, baby stay
E A
Her mama called me a thief
Am G C D D#
And her dad called himself commander-in-chief
E A
I fought him off with my love
Am G C D G A B
But I knew the sense of worthlessness she'd have to rise above
C Bm A
Don't go down, Don't go down
D G C G C G B
Stay with me, Baby, stay
(Play through verse)
C Bm A
Don't go down, Don't go down
D G C G C G B
Stay with me, Baby, stay
E A
She had a dream, woke up in shock
Am G C
She had seen her own body outlined in chalk
E A
I split the scene, the globe had been spun
Am G C D G A B
And her ghost leaned down to kiss me with a message from the sun
C Bm A
Don't go down, Don't go down
D C
Stay with me, Baby stay
Bm A
Don't go down
D C
Stay with me, Baby stay
Bm A
Don't go down
D G
Stay with me, Baby, stay
G
Stay
