Going Down For The Third Time 
Phoebe Snow 
AI'm goin' down, down for the third time
I'm goin' down, down for the third time
DDrownin' in tears from my heart that's hurtin'
ADrownin' in tears from a love that's uncertain
     IC'm lost in a world without your love
     DA sea of emptiEness
     CThe love we knew is bein' washed away
     FDon't think I can last, my heart is Esinkin' fast
I'm goin' down, down for the third time
Tryin' to hold on to a love that's gone
Drownin' in the love that keeps me breathin'
Drownin' in the fear that my arms you're leavin'
     Bring back that love we knew
     And let me live again
     A little tenderness to me start showin'
     Fill my heart with love till it's overflowin'
Instr.('I'm going down...'):
A   A   D   A
           C  D-E  
DLike a ship all alone on a ragin' sea
AYou got me tossin' and a-turnin' and I can't get free
     Reach out your hand for me
     Save what's left of our love
     I'll forgive your lies and alibis
     If you'll wipe my cryin' eyes
I'm goin' down, for the third time
So won't you save this heart of mine
I've loved too long, I love too strong
Now little boy you know you're doin' me wrong
     Come on and save me
     Come on and save me (down, down, down, down)
     Save me, save me
     (Don't let her drown, drown, drown, drown)
Drowning...
(I'm goin down, down, down, down)
(Don't let her drown, drown, drown, drown)

Going Down For The Third Time

Phoebe Snow

I'm goin' down, down for the third time

Drownin' in tears from my heart that's hurtin'

Drownin' in tears from a love that's uncertain

I'm lost in a world without your love

D E

A sea of emptiness

The love we knew is bein' washed away

F E

Don't think I can last, my heart is sinkin' fast

I'm goin' down, down for the third time

Tryin' to hold on to a love that's gone

Drownin' in the love that keeps me breathin'

Drownin' in the fear that my arms you're leavin'

Bring back that love we knew

And let me live again

A little tenderness to me start showin'

Fill my heart with love till it's overflowin'

Instr.('I'm going down...'):

A A D A

C D E

Like a ship all alone on a ragin' sea

You got me tossin' and a-turnin' and I can't get free

Reach out your hand for me

Save what's left of our love

I'll forgive your lies and alibis

If you'll wipe my cryin' eyes

I'm goin' down, for the third time

So won't you save this heart of mine

I've loved too long, I love too strong

Now little boy you know you're doin' me wrong

Come on and save me

Come on and save me (down, down, down, down)

Save me, save me

(Don't let her drown, drown, drown, drown)

Drowning...

(I'm goin down, down, down, down)

(Don't let her drown, drown, drown, drown)
