[Intro]
G D C G
[Verse]
GWell I woke again this mor'n
Yeah my Dheart was broke and torn
Though i Cswear i thought i'd sworn that life Gaway
In my Ghead it starts to spin
No i Ddon't remember when 
I last Chad a sober friend to start the Gday
I was Glooking right at her
she was Dlooking right at him
oh i Cknow it's probably when i lost Gcontrol.
So i Gcrawled back to the bar
said i Dalways go too far
another Cdrink another smoke to fill the Ghole.
[Chorus]
I'm going Cdown, down, down baby down that broken Groad
do not Gsave me from myself 
do not Glet me go in
Cdown, down, down baby, down that broken Groad
don't let me get Dold 
on the broken Groad
[Verse]
Oh these Glines beneath my eyes
they're from Done too many nights
should've Cquit, but lord I could not walk Gaway.
Yes i Gknow i drink too much
shit i Dknow my life is rushed
how i Clive and how i die they are the Gsame.
[Chorus]
I'm going Cdown, down, down baby down that broken Groad
do not Gsave me from myself 
do not Glet me go in
Cdown, down, down baby, down that broken Groad
don't let me get Dold 
on the broken Groad
[Solo]
G  D  C  G
[Verse]
All the Gparties that you host
have a Dguest list made of ghosts
and their Csouls were long ago Gsold.
Wow they Grun their fancy mouths
and they Drun you to the ground
they are Cbitter, you are hollow, you're both Gcold.
[Chorus]
I'm going Cdown, down, down baby down that broken Groad
do not Gsave me from myself 
do not Glet me go in
Cdown, down, down baby, down that broken Groad
don't let me get Dold 
on the broken Groad
