Chorus:
(intro)
Long way down, I don't think I'll make it on my own 
Long way down, I don't want to live in here alone 
Long way down, I don't think I'll make it on my own

(verse)
I never put you down, I never pushed you away 
You're not supposed to be that way 
And anything you want, there's nothing I could say

(bridge)
Is there anything to feel? 
Is it pain that makes you real? 
Cut me off before it kills me

(chorus)
Long way down, I don't think I'll make it on my own 
Long way down, I don't want to live in here alone 
Long way down, I don't think I'll make it on my own

E --7-----5-----7------3-------------------

(verse)
I never put you down, I never pushed you away

(bridge)
Take another piece of me 
Give my mind a new disease 
And the black and white world never fades to gray

(chorus)
Long way down, I don't think I'll make it on my own 
Long way down, I don't want to live in here alone 
Long way down, I don't think I'll make it on my own
