Intro:

F#m                                  E A E A
Knowing you is like pulling teeth
F#m                        
You think that the world's beneath you
A           
All the brilliance 
    B
The Lord bequeaths you
    E
You think of your age
        A        E
And you get in a rage
A           E
Losing your dream 
     B7     E
Of a bigger stage
           
They look in your eyes
         A                 E
And they think that you're wise
    A    E 
But I realize
         B7        E
That you suck as a sage
G#7
Bulletin

This just in
F#m
Breaking news on
A B
CNN
  E                        A
I just figured out how you do
         E 
What you do
     A 
And, man
       B7    E   
You're going down 


Chorus:


a g# g e                   a g# g e
         You're going down

You're going down
      A              E         B7    E
Well, if you want to walk that cocky walk
       A                E
You're going to have to find
  B7          E
A new part of town
  G#7     
I just figured out how you do what you do
     F#m
I've got bad news
      A     B
I can do it too
  E
I hope you had fun
       A          E
'Cause now you're done
     A
And, man
       B7    E
You're going down


2nd verse:
F#m                                  E A E A
You charismatic little snob
F#
Talent, health, successful job
A
All these gifts
         B
And it's like you've been robbed
E
You have got
    A         E
The catchiest frown
A       E
It's contagious
    B7       E
You pass it around
       E
So you paste a grin
 A         E
Above your chin
A         E
Big white pearlies
B7      E
Lips so thin
    F#m
You criticize

Act like you're wise
 A        
"I'm intriguing
B
Guess my disguise"
      E
Well, you're at the top
    A            E
But that's gonna stop
        A 
'Cause, man
       B7    E   
You're going down


Chorus, watch ending:
A           B7
Man, you're going
A           B7
Man, you're going
A           B7    E       E7 (with C7 voicing)
Man, you're going down
