[Intro]
 
Asus4 A Asus2 E Eadd11
Asus4 A Asus2 E Eadd11
 
[Verse 1]
 
Asus4      A    Esus4          E   Eadd11
Take everything that     we’ve had,
Asus4       A       Esus4  E      Eadd11
Take it and burn it to the ground.
Asus4            A     Esus4    E    Eadd11
Some things were never meant to last.
 
[Chorus]
 
Asus4          A    Esus4
Take it down, down, down,
        E   Eadd11
Take it down.
Dsus2         A     Esus4
Take it down, down, down,
        E   Eadd11
Take it down.
 
[Verse 2]
 
Asus4     A       Esus4 E      Eadd11
I’m still married to it all.
Asus4         A        Esus4 E       Eadd11
That ain’t no place to hang around.
Asus4       A    Esus4 E      Eadd11
My love is fifty feet tall.
 
[Chorus]
 
Asus4          A    Esus4
Take it down, down, down,
        E    Eadd11
Take it down.

Take it down, down, down,
        E    Eadd11
Take it down.
 
[Bridge]
 
    Asus4                        E
And I’ve grown accustomed to the way
    A              Dsus2
You hurled us into space.
     Asus4           E
I’ll never make that trip
Asus4                  E
Tears all rusted on my face. 
        A             Asus4
And I’m just an empty place
Asus4                    E Eadd11
Where your love used to fit
 
[Break]

Asus4     A     Esus4     E   Eadd11
South Carolina, where are you?
Asus4        A     Esus4   E    Eadd11
We were once lost, now are found.
Asus4      A         Esus4    E      Eadd11
The war is over, the battle’s through.
 
[Chorus]

Take it down.
