[Verse 1]
D
Kickin' and a-screamin'
     G     D
Only way I learn
    D
I'm afraid of my own shadow
        G                 A
Not the bridge around the turn
       G                     D
Well I lost myself and found myself
      G                D
While you were kissin' ass
      Bm
And I know it's not your nature
        A      D
Just to let me pass
 
 
[Chorus]
          G       D
I'm gonna go down swingin'
G                D
Singin' till the end
          Bm
I'm gonna go down swingin'
        G                A
You and me and your best friend
          G       D
I'm gonna go down swingin'
      G                D
Upper cut and two left jabs
          Bm                         A       D
I'm gonna go down swingin' with everything I have

[Verse 2]
D
Sometimes I am a predator
G               D
Prowlin' for my life
D
Other times I am a field mouse
G               A
Running for the sides
       G                 D
Of the biggest, flattest corn field
               G       D
Bigger than my Indiana home
        Bm
Til the harvest comes along
               A    D
And I leave my tiny bones
 
 
[Chorus]
          G       D
I'm gonna go down swingin'
G                D
Singin' till the end
          Bm
I'm gonna go down swingin'
         G         A
Like the Duke recommends
          G       D
I'm gonna go down swingin'
        G                 D
For the bleachers in left field
          Bm                      A        D
I'm gonna go down swingin' like a blade of steel

[Verse 3]
D
There's a scarecrow scarin' nothin'
        G             D
Trumpet player in the barn
         D
And he's puffin' both his cheeks out
         G                A
And he's liftin' both his arms
      G                  D
As he blows his notes to heaven
       G                  D
As the preacher dunks you in
    Bm
And all along the river
           A        D
The air is sweet as sin
 
 
[Chorus]
        G       D
I wanna go down swingin'
     G         D
Hallelujah Gabriel
        Bm
I wanna go down swingin'
       G                 A
Oh you play the blues so well
        G       D
I wanna go down swingin'
G                   D
Three sheets to the wind
        Bm                            A      D
I wanna go down swingin', punch drunk to the end
