Long Way Down Chords by The Steeldrivers

[N] Hey, how you folks doing out there?
Good to see you.
So it's great to be here at American Songwriter today.
Thank you for having us.
We're going to start out and do a tune that I made up with my good friends Jerry Sally and Liz Hingber. _
[F] _ And it's a nice way to tell somebody that you're breaking up with where to go.
It's one called Long Way Down. _

_ _ _ _ [Em] _ [D] I _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
thought that [E] you were sent from heaven.
You had me _ floating [D] on a cloud.
But [A] tonight _ [Em] my sky is falling. _
It's a long [D] way down.
Oh yeah, [Em] it's a long way down. _
[D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [E] _
_ [Em] _ Now you can't lie, this [E] girl I called you.
You can't deny, [D] you've been a-messing around.
But where [A] you go when there ain't no [E] ice water.
It's a long [D] way [A] down.
Oh, it's a [Em] long way down.
[E] Oh, so far down that it ain't got a [D] bottom.
Thought you had a wing but I guess you ain't got them.
[A] Fallen angel, don't look [E] now.
Oh, _ _ [B] it's a long way [Em] down. _
_ [D] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ Don't look to me to be your savior.
[E] A girl we both know, oh, it's a [D] long way down.
_ _ [A] It's how, just like the love you [Em] gave me.
And it's a long [D] way.
_ [B] _ _
_ _ _ [E] So far down that it ain't got a bottom.
[D] Thought you had a wing but I guess you ain't got them.
[A] Fallen angel, don't look now.

_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ So far down that it ain't got a [D] bottom.
Thought you had a wing but I guess you ain't [A] got them.
Fallen angel, don't look [E] now.
So far down that it ain't got a [D] bottom.
Thought you had a wing but I guess you ain't [A] got them.
Fallen angel, don't look [E] now.
So far down that it ain't got [F#] a bottom.
Thought you had a wing but I guess you [G] ain't got them.
Fallen angel, don't look [E] now.
Oh, _ _ _ _ [Em] it's a long way down.
