C G
Like water through a drain,
F C
I'm spinning down, down, down
C G
Like the needle in my vein,
F C
You're bringing me down, down, down
C G
Like a dog who's gone insane,
F C
You're putting me down, down, down
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
And those of you who doubted me,
Am
Are going down, down, down
Em
And the record man who never called,
G
Can you hear what's going on?
[Chorus]
C G F
I'm coming up
C G F
I'm coming up
C G F
I'm coming up
Am G C Dm
I'm coming up
F C
And this world ain't gonna catch me going down
[Instrumental]
C G F Am F G
[Verse]
C G
Like the food deep in my belly,
F C
I'm going down, down, down
C G
And for twenty bucks in the alley,
F C
I'm going down, down, down
C G
Like the trail beneath your valley
F C
I'm going down, down, down
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
For my ma, who's always honored me,
Am
I'm going down, down, down
Em
For my pa, who never wanted me,
G
Can you feel what's going on?
[Chorus]
C G F
I'm coming up
C G F
I'm coming up
C G F
I'm coming up
Am G C Dm
I'm coming up
F C
And this world ain't gonna catch me going down
[Bridge]
Dm Am
Oh, won't you please believe me,
C G
Oh baby don't you leave me
Dm Am
Why wont you say you need me
C G
Please use them breasts to feed me,
Em G F Dm G
I ain't going down
[Solo]
C G F Am F G C G F Am F G
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
For my ma, who's always honored me,
Am
I'm going down, down, down
Em
For my pa, who never wanted me,
G
Can you feel what's going on?
[Chorus]

I'm coming up

Am G C Dm
I'm coming up
F C
And this world ain't gonna catch me going down
