Intro:
D -- Bm -- Asus4 -- A
D -- Bm -- Cadd9 -- Asus4 - A
D Bm Asus4 A
I've come five hundred miles just to see a halo
D Bm Cadd9 A
come from St. Petersburg, Scarlet and me
D Bm Asus4 A
Well I opened my eyes, I was blind as can be
D Bm Cadd9 A
When you give a man luck, he must fall in the sea
Em Em7 Asus4 A
And she wants you to steal and get caught
Em Em7 Asus4 A
For she loves you for all that you are not
D Bm Asus4 A
When you're falling down, falling down
D Bm Cadd9 A
When you're falling down, falling down

D Bm Asus4 A
You forget all the roses don't come 'round on sunday
D Bm Cadd9 A
She's not gonna choose you, for standing so tall
D Bm Asus4 A
Go on, take a swig of that poison, and like it
D Bm Cadd9 A
Don't ask for silverware, don't ask for nothing
Em Em7 Asus4 A
Go on, put your ear to the ground
Em Em7 Asus4 A
Yeah you know you'll be hearin' that sound
D Bm Asus4 A
Of falling down, falling down
D Bm Cadd9 A
Of falling down, falling down
D Bm Asus4 A
Well you're fallin' down, yeah you're falling
D Bm Cadd9 A
You're fallin' down
Solo:
D Bm Asus4 A D Bm Cadd9 A

Em Em7 Asus4 A Em Em7 Asus4 A
D Bm Asus4 A
Well you're fallin' down, yeah you're falling
D Bm Cadd9 A
You're fallin' down
D Bm Asus4 A
Go on down see that wrecking ball come swinging on along
D Bm Cadd9 A
Everyone knew that hotel was a goner
D Bm Asus4 A
They broke all the windows, they took all the doorknobs
D Bm Cadd9 A
And they hauled it away in a couple of days
Em Em7 Asus4 A
Now someone yelled 'timber, take off your hat'
Em Em7 Asus4 A
It all looks smaller down here on the ground
D Bm Asus4 A
we're fallin' down, you're fallin' down
D Bm Cadd9 A
yeah you're fallin', you're fallin' down
D Bm Asus4 A
well you're fallin', you're fallin' down
D Bm Cadd9 A
yeah, fallin', fallin' down...

*I recently heard this song and fell in love with it. So, I wanted to
establish a foundation for playing the song. It may not be perfect,
and I just improvise for the solo, so I hope you enjoy it.
