verse 1 

E 
Waitin' at these crossroads, 
G 
Forever and a day, 
     D               E 
On a guide to buy my soul, 
   E 
I spend all night and day 
         G 
How much harder can I play? 
           D                      E 
You know I gave my life to rock'n'roll. 


verse 2 

E 
Mama begged me please, 
        G 
Yes she got down on her knees, 
              D                        E 
Said, "you'll burn in that Mississippi sun," 
            E 
But I'm the only one that's standing here, 
   G 
So mama don't you have no fear, 

     D                             E 
I'll be the last 'til I've already won, 
G    D E 
Here I go: 

E       G 
Take me down, 
D         E 
  Take me down, 
E         G 
  Take me down, 
D                   E 
  Won't you take me down?
 


verse 3 

E 
Standin' at the crossroads, 
  G 
A dried up pen in hand, 
    D                      E 
The conversation went like this: 
E 
"Tell me your desire, 
         G 
"Why you pulled me from the fire," 
       D                      E 
And we sealed the deal with a kiss. 

      E 
Don't wanna raise the dead, 
       G 
Find a note that I can shred, 
      D                 E 
On my walls I scrawl my Gods, 
      E 
Don't care what happens when I die, 
   G 
As long as I'm alive, 
D                 E 
All I wanna do is rock, rock, rock 

E       G 
Take me down, 
D         E 
  Take me down, 
E         G 
  Take me down, 
D                   E 
  Won't you take me down?
