[E] I'm going down. Going down.
Help, help, help, [A] help, help, help, [C] help, help, help.
[E]
I wish I had another drink.
I wouldn't be so hot to sink.
You should have taken time to think.
Besides, I got the picture straight.
You must have had another date.
I didn't need to sexuate her.
Where is she?
I could see the way it's shot.
[A] [C]
[E] I'm going down.
I'm going down.
I'm in a shuttle on a swim.

I'm [Em] going down.

[C#m]
[E] I'm going down.
I wish I'd looked before I [C#m] leave.
I didn't know it was so [E] beautiful.
I'm down so far, I don't get [C#m] you.
I haven't touched the bottom yet.
[E] This river scene is getting [C#m] old.
I'm hungry, sleepy, wet and [E] cold.
She told me to forget it [C#m] nice.
I should have taken her [E] advice.
I only want to go on [C#m] home.
I'd gladly leave that girl [Em] alone.
What a way to [C#m] spend the night.
If I don't drown, I'll die of [Em] fright.
My bat bit taught me how to [C#m] float.
But I can't swim a single [E] note.
It threw me in to teach me [C#] how.
I stayed there floating like a mama [E] cow.
And now I'm floating way [C#m] downstream.
No, this has to be a [E] dream.
If I were way [C#m] ashore, I'd never, never do this [E] anymore.
[C#m] I just want more [E] time for [C#m]
myself.

I'm going [C#m] down.
Now
[E] [C#m] [E]
[C#m]
[E] the sky is getting [C#m] light.
Everything [E] will be alright.
I think I finally got [A] the knack of just floating and lazy on my [E] back.
I never really liked that [C#m] town.
I think I'd [Em] rather river down just moving slow and floating free.
There's a river swinging [E] under me.
Waving back to the slopes on [C#m] shore.
I should have thought of this [E] before.
[C#m] I threw off on [E] swinging seas.
I'm going down.
