Headlong Into The Abyss

• D

Intro (muted)
C………….D………….D…….

D
We were headlong into the abyss

In a four door sedan , and a kid that always stuttered

We stole it, for the feeling, of stealing, and drove it, 

just like our days had been stolen
Bm              Bm              D           G                 
Follow me down, Follow me down, Follow me down
                       Bm                           
And we'll raise our glass
              F#                           
To borrowed cash
D              G                           
To borrowed cash

D………….Bm……D…….

Our wheels touched the highway
     Bm                        
We travelled on down
         A                            D
From the valley that raised us up to shrink down

And gave us the drive
                       Bm        D
To keep driving from dreary and dread
                           Bm
To make bets we could not afford to
           D
Follow me down
           G
Follow me down
                     D
And we'll raise our glass
Bm           D
To borrowed cash
             G
To borrowed cash
                            D
C'mon, c'mon, to borrowed cash
G                     D

Gonna wait around, gonna wait around

For some pill to kick in.
