C                              Em 
Well, they stood prepared as you took the chair 
            F               C 
There was no need to satisfy you  
                     Em 
I'll be damed though I held you hand 
           F               G 
They felt a need to crucify you 
 
           Am        Em 
You're going down baby, baby 
            F         G 
You're going down baby, baby 
 
           C     Em   F                C 
You're in a tailspin running out of your head 
           C     Em   F                C 
You're in a tailspin running out of your head 
 
 
You're a fragile flower in its final hour 
With no chance to taste the waters 
Judge declared, You'll get 15 years 
Join the lonely sons and daughters 
 
 
You're going down baby, baby 
You're going down baby, baby 
 
You're in a tailspin running out of your head 
You're in a tailspin running out of your head 
 
Smoke and mirrors couldn't hide your tears 
Your eyes only betray you 
Long trip, you lost your grip 
We've all been praying for you  
 
You're going down baby, baby 
You're going down baby, baby 
 
You're in a tailspin running out of your head
