[Verse 1]
Well, they stood prepared as you took the chair
There was no need to satisfy you
I'll be damned, though I held your hand
They felt the need to crucify you

[Pre-Chorus]
You're goin' down, baby, baby
You're goin' down, baby, baby

[Chorus]
You're in a tailspin
Running out of your head
You're in a tailspin
Running out of your head

[Verse 2]
You're a fragile flower in its final hour
With no chance to taste the waters
Judge declared, "You'll get fifteen years
Join the lonely sons and daughters"

[Pre-Chorus]
You're goin' down, baby, baby
You're goin' down, baby, baby
[Chorus]
You're in a tailspin
Running out of your head
You're in a tailspin
Running out of your head

[Guitar Solo]
[Pedal Steel Solo]

[Verse 3]
Smoke and mirrors couldn't hide your tears
Your eyes only betray you
Long trip, you lost your grip
We've all been praying for you

[Pre-Chorus]
You're goin' down, baby, baby
You're goin' down, baby, baby

[Chorus]
You're in a tailspin
Running out of your head
You're in a tailspin
Running out of your head
You're in a tailspin
Running out of your head
In a tailspin, baby
Running out of your head
