Verse 
 
F                      G     
Another moment breaks, the shadow side of me 
Em                       D  
It's like holding thread until I fall apart 
F                          G            
They say to live with this song I have to sing 
Em                        D  
It's the cross that hangs deep below my heart 
 
 
Pre-Chorus 
F 
And when I get the feeling 
  A 
I let the damn walls break 
E 
Let the damn walls break 
 
 
D 
Down! 
F                         G 
Nothing's gonna drown me, nothing's gonna drown me 
D 
Out! 
         G                       E 
From the top of the world to the bottom of the ocean 
C                                       F 
Screaming loud, screaming loud from the underground 
C                                  F 
Listen now, listen now, you're not taking me 
D 
Down! 
F                         G 
Nothing's gonna drown me, nothing's gonna drown me out 
 F                         G 
(Nothing's gonna drown me, nothing's gonna drown me) 
 
 
Verse 
F                    G 
Feel a violent rage, washing over me 
Em                    D 
I can barely breathe, bury me alive 
F               G 
All the tragedy becomes a symphony 
Em                   D 
Full of pain, I feel my final goodbye 
 
 
Pre-Chorus 
F 
And when I get the feeling 
  A 
I let the damn walls break 
E 
Let the damn walls break 
 
 
D 
Down! 
F                         G 
Nothing's gonna drown me, nothing's gonna drown me 
D 
Out! 
         G                       E 
From the top of the world to the bottom of the ocean 
C                              F 
Screaming loud, screaming loud from the underground 
C                                  F 
Listen now, listen now, you're not taking me 
D 
Down! 
F                         G 
Nothing's gonna drown me, nothing's gonna drown me out 
C                               F 
Screaming loud, screaming loud, from the underground 
F                         G 
Nothing's gonna drown me, nothing's gonna drown me out
