Intro:  A

I was twenty one naïve
                             B
Not cynical, I try to please 
     E
Her wit, her speech, her repartee
                           B
Impressed me almost instantly 
         A                          B
She went all the way, all the way down.
          A

     E
She showed me love a hundred ways
                                 B
How she pimped and how she played 
E
All the daughters, all the sons
                                B
All were welcome, all would come 
         A                          B
We went all the way, all the way down
          A                    B
We went all the way, all the way 
E
I was King, Mr. Cool 
                        B
Just a snobby little fool. "Like kids are now." 
     E
I dreamed of reaching greater heights
                              B
I raved about it every night. Talk is cheap 
         A                  B
She went all the way, all the way
         A
All the way down, yeah

She went all the way, all the way all the way 
A             B              A       B
All the way down. She went all the way 
      C#m           B      F#m
She's there when I close my eyes
A             G#m   F#m   A
There when I close my eyes 
      C#m           B      F#m

How the years they rush on by
                     B
Birthdays, kids and suicides 
E                          B
Still I play the fool and slut 
A                B
Still you're a slut 
 A             B    A        B
Hey girl, she went all the way
 A        B     A    B     A            B

You give me back that time right now
                             B
I can see it if I close my eyes 
    E
Was every minute just a waste
                           B
Was every hour a foolish chase. I don't believe it 
A             B        A            B
