Headlong Into The Abyss

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

Follow me down, Follow me down, 
D           G
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                         
From the valley that raised us up 
   D
to shrink down

And gave us the drive
                       Bm      
To keep driving from dreary and 
  D
dread
                           Bm
To make bets we could not afford to
