[Verse 1]
Am F
Can't you see the avalanche
C G
The landslide beneath your feet
Am F
Can't you see what's coming
G
For you and me
F C
Look what you started
G Am
When you thought you were alone
F C
Now you're broken-hearted
G
And I'm cold as a stone
[Chorus]
F
We're going down
C G
And there ain't no turning back
F
You set us in motion
G
On this one-way track
F
We're going down
C G
And it's time to face the fact
Dm G
That we ran us into the ground
Am
And we're going down
[Instrumental]

As love dies on the vine

Hang your head and start to cry

'Cause now you realize

We're going down

And there ain't no turning back

You set us in motion

On this one-way track

We're going down

And it's time to face the fact

That we ran us into the ground
And we're going down

We passed the point of no return
G
There's no house left to burn
F G
You took your flesh, you got your pound
[Chorus]

We're going down

And there ain't no turning back
F
You set us in motion
G
On this one-way track
F
We're going down
C G
And there ain't no turning back
F
You set us in motion
G
On this one-way track
F
We're going down

That we ran us into the ground

And we're going down
