All of my health is failing;

Lord, I'm going down slow,
    Bdim         Am7 Am6 Bdim
I'm going down slow.

Please write my mother
and tell her the shape I'm in
Please write my mother
and tell her the shape I'm in

Tell her to pray for me
Forgive me for my sin
For all of my sin

On the next train south,
look for my clothes back home
On the next train south,
look for my clothes back home

As all of my health is failing
Lord, I'm going down slow
I'm going down slow

All of my health is failing
Lord, I'm going down slow
I'm going down slow

I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow
I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow
I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow
I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow
I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow
