Verse 1:

C                   G
  You've come this far

  Followed each

  And every star

  Not to reach
e[-1--0----] (While the G-chord sounds)
b[--------3]

    F           Am      G    G7
The peak would seem so wrong
C                 G
  Your eyes look tired

  Want to sleep
b[-0---1---3] (While the G-chord sounds)

C                G
  Although this climb's

  So steep
e[-1--0----] (While the G-chord sounds)

   F          Am      G
We must keep pressing on

Chorus:

Amaj7 A7          D6       Dm6
Down     it's the only way down
Amaj7          A7       D6    F G
      It's the only way down
Amaj7 A7          D6       Dm6

      It's the only way down

Verse 2:

C                 G
  I've heard you sing

   Quiet voice
b[-0--1---3]   (While the G-chord sounds)

C             G
  Of adverse things
                      F
  Now you've made the choice
e[-1----0------]    (While the G-chord sounds)
b[------------3]
   Àm   G    G7
To overcome
C                  G
  This mountains' spire

   Towering
b[-0--1--3]   (While the G-chord sounds)
C            G
  Below the summit
   Cowering
e[-1--0--]   (While the G-chord sounds)
b[------3]

       F        Am      G
You've seen how others clung

Chorus:

Amaj7 A7          D6       Dm6
Down     it's the only way down
Amaj7          A7       D6    F G
      It's the only way down
Amaj7 A7          D6       Dm6
Down     it's the only way down
Amaj7          A7       D6    F Fmaj7
      It's the only way down

Ending:

C                  Em7
  You've come this far
F#m7            G
     Along this wind
D             A
  Around this bend
             G
Now look at where you are
