Tuning: Standard
[E]I met a girl, a snowball in [A7]hell
She was a[Am7]s hard and as c[G]racked as the Liberty [C]Bell [D] [D#]
[E]I got her to come on and move in with [A7]me
And I [Am7]said I'd find a be[G]tter place we could [C5]spe[D5]nd [G5]ete[A5]rni[B5]ty
Don't go [C5]down, d[B5]on't go [A5]down
[D5]Stay with me, [G5]bab[C5]y s[G5]taa[C5]aaa[G5]ay [B5]
[E]Her mama called me a [A7]thief
And her [Am7]dad called [G]himself commander-in-[C]chief[D] [D#]
[E]I fought him off with my [A7]love
But I [Am7]knew the sense of w[G]orthlessness she'd h[C5]ave [D5]to r[G5]ise [A5]abov[B5]e
Don't go [C5]down, [B5]Don't go [A5]down
[D5]Stay with me, B[G5]aby[C5], s[G5]taa[C5]aaa[G5]ay[B5]
(Play through verse)
Don't go [C5]down, [B5]Don't go [A5]down
[D5]Stay with me, B[G5]aby[C5], s[G5]taa[C5]aaa[G5]ay[B5]
[E]She had a dream, woke up in [A7]shock
She had [Am7]seen her own [G]body outlined in [C]chalk
[E]I split the scene, the globe had been [A7]spun
And her [Am7]ghost leaned down to [G]kiss me with a [C5]mess[D5]age [G5]from [A5]the [B5]sun
Don't go [C5]down, [B5]Don't go [A5]down
[D5]Stay with me, Baby [C5]stay
[B5]Don't go [A5]down
[D5]Stay with me, Baby [C5]stay
[B5]Don't go [A5]down
[D5]Stay with me, Baby, [G5]stay
[G5]Stay
