G D G A
D(Down) We're Agoing down, Bmwe're F#mgoing downG  
It Dtakes a sound Gto bAreak them down
DHave you ever heard the Aoutside calling?
BmHave you ever heard the F#mtrees singing their song?
GHave you ever taDsted a ray of sun?
GAnd have you ever Aheld a moon's glow?
DWhy do I feel Ascared in the morning?
BmThe sun's up and F#meverybody's moving on
GAnd maybe Dwe all feel alone
GEven though we Ahave our telephone
G
DAnd we destroy a Apart of us, every Bmtime we blink Aan eyeG  
And Dnow it's time for all Aof us to know that we're going...
D(Down) We're Agoing down, Bmwe're F#mgoing downG  
It Dtakes a sound Gto bAreak them down
(Alright, let's go)
DNormality, conformity, Astillness, fake faith and forgery
BmAll seem to be a major key to F#mwhy the day to day will seem
GTo be a melting dream that we once had
DBut now the dream is weak Gbut now that we all see
AThat we have fallen down we just might be
DAlive and able to prescribe, the reason Awhy we cry
A means to an end then we die, Bmfall just to fly, fly 'cause we're free
F#mFree 'cause I know I've seen the eDnd of me
So Gwe need to know that we are Dgoing down
To seize our crowns, Gand everybody here will sing a sound
AWe once were lost but now we're found
DAnd we destroy a Apart of us, every Bmtime we blink Aan eye
GAnd now Dit's time for all Aof us to know that we're going...
A(Down...)
GHave you ever taDsted a ray of sun?
GAnd have you ever Aheld a moon's glow?
