[Verse]
G D
We were born in a dying town
C G
Where deperate souls just hang around
G D C
Waiting for a reason to believe
G D
The young get old and the old they stay
C G
And slowly they just fade away
D C G
But I'm going not down that way no I'm not going down
D C G
Cause I've been the loser desperate to win
D C G
And I've tasted snake oil and I've tasted sin
G D C G
I've stumbled through the darkness on the outskirts of town
D C G
But I'm going not down that way no I'm not going down
G D
I met a waitress out on 95
C G
She lived her life like throwing dice
G D C
Her habit finally took the best of her
G D
She drew me in day by day
C G
Yea love's a drug that's what they say
D C G
But I'm going not down that way no I'm not going down
D C G
Cause I've been the loser desperate to win
G
And I've tasted snake oil and sin
G D C G
I've stumbled through the darkness on the outskirts of town
D C G
But I'm going not down that way no I'm not going down
D C G D
Let it go
D C G
Let it go
G D
You flash that shiny golden smile
C G
You say it'll be all right in a while
G D C
But I'm not about to shake your hand
G D
Yes I've made promises I couldn't keep
C G
And I've lost a couple of nights of sleep
D C G
But I'm going not down that way no I'm not going down
D C G
But I'm going not down that way no I'm not going down
D C G
Cause I've been the loser desperate to win
D C G
And I've tasted snake oil and I've tasted sin
G D C G
I've stumbled through the darkness on the outskirts of town
D C G
But I'm going not down that way no I'm not going down
D C G D
Let it go
D C G
Let it go
D C G D
Let it go
D C G
Let it go
G D C G
I've stumbled through the darkness on the outskirts of town
