Verse:

           C#m7
It's not a silly little moment
             Aadd9            E
It's not the storm before the calm
            C#m7
This is the deep and dying breath of
                          Aadd9   E
This love that we've been working on

           C#m7
Can't seem to hold you like I want to
             Aadd9            E
So I can feel you in my arms
            C#m7
Nobody's gonna come and save you
             Aadd9            E
We've pulled too many false alarms

We're going down
            C#m7   Aadd9
And you can see it too
            Badd11
We're going down
        C#m7            F#m11

Verse:

           C#m7
I was the one you always dreamed of
           Aadd9             E
You were the one I tried to draw
           C#m7
How dare you say it's nothing to me
            Aadd9                 E
Baby you're the only light I ever saw

           C#m7
I'll make the most of all the sadness
            Aadd9          E
You'll be a bitch because you can
           C#m7
You try to hit me just to hurt me so you leave me feeling dirty
            Aadd9   E
Because you can't understand


Chorus:

            Badd11
We're going down

And you can see it too
            Badd11
We're going down
        C#m7            F#m11
And you know that we're doomed
