Long Way Down Lyrics

[Verse 1: Chris Daughtry]
Traveled all around the world to be with you
You never know where the open road will lead you to
I crawled before I walked and still got nowhere fast
The other side still had the greener grass
(Oh) You win some and you lose some, yeah
(Oh) Everything looks so much smaller from up here

[Chorus: Chris Daughtry]
I hear it's such a long way down
Yeah, the climb back up ain't easy as it sounds
I hear it's such a long way down
Yeah, the climb back up is just somethin' I can do without
Somethin' I can do without

[Verse 2: Timbaland & Chris Daughtry]
C'mon
I walked until I didn't have no energy (Ow)
I bought until I didn't have no bite left in me (Ow)
I died so that I didn't have to live in the past (Ow)
But the other side still had the greener grass
Check it
(Oh) you win some and you lose some, yeah
(Oh) Everything looks so much smaller from up here


[Chorus: Chris Daughtry]
I hear it's such a long way down
Yeah, the climb back up ain't easy as it sounds
I hear it's such a long way down
Yeah, the climb back up is just somethin' I can do without
Somethin' I can do without
[Verse 3: Timbaland & Chris Daughtry]
Ow, ow-ow ow ow-ow-ow (Somethin' I can do without!)
Ah-ow, ow-ow-ow, ow-ow (Somethin' I can do without!)
Put your hands up, yeah
Hey, put your hands up, yeah
Yeah, put your hands up, yeah, hey (Somethin' I can do without)

[Chorus: Chris Daughtry]
I hear it's such a long way down
(It's just somethin' I can do without)
Yeah, the climb back up ain't easy as it sounds
(Ah-yeah, it's just somethin' I can do without)
I hear it's such a long way down (Yeah-yeah)
Yeah, the climb back up is just somethin' I can do without (Yeah-yeah, just)
Somethin' I can do without (Oh yeah)

[Outro: Chris Daughtry & Timbaland]
Somethin' I can do without!
(Frikki-frikki-frikki yeah yeah!)
Somethin' I can do without!
(Frikki-frikki-frikki yeah yeah-yeah-yah!)
Somethin' I can do without!
(C'mon, c'mon, yeah yeahhhh)
Somethin' I can do without!
Yeah-eh-ehhhh, ohhh
Somethin' I can do without
Oh oh ohhh, somethin' I can do with-oww-out
Oh oh oh, somethin' I can do with OUT, OUT, OUT
That's it

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
