On The Way Down

Em      C9      G       D  (2x)

Em       C9             G
Sick and tired of this world
D               Em
There's no more air
C9               G     D      Em
Tripping over myself, going nowhere
C9       G     D      Em     C9
Waiting, suffocating, no direction
G (pausa)
And I took a dive

Em         C9
On the way down
G                 D              Em        C9
I saw you, and you saved me from myself
G                     D
And I won't forget the way you loved me
Em         C9
On the way down
G       D           Em
Almost fell right through
D      C9
But I held on to you

C9             G        D      Em
It's alright, sunlight on my face

I wake up and yet, I'm alive
