| A | E | |
| I've come | 500 miles just to | see a halo |
| A | E | |
| Come from st. Petersburg, Sc | arlett and me |
| A | E | |
| Well I | open my eyes, I was | blind as can be |
| A | E | |
| When you | give a man luck, he | must fall in the sea |
| Bm | E | |
| And she | wants you to steal and get | caught |
| Bm | E | |
| For she | loves you for all that you | are not |
| A | E | |
| When you're f | alling down, falling d | own |
| A E (hold) |
| When you're falling down, falling down, falling down |
| You forget all the roses, don't come around on sunday |
| She's not gonna choose you for standing so tall |
| Go on and take a swig of that poison and like it |
| And don't ask for silverware, don't ask for nothing |
| Go on and put your ear to the ground |
| You know you will be hearing that sound......falling down. |
| You're falling down, falling down |
| Falling down, falling down, falling down |
| (solo) (on verse crd) |
| When you're falling down, falling down, falling down |
| Go on down and see that wrecking ball come swinging on along |
| Everyone knew that hotel was a goner |
| They broke all the windows, they took all the door knobs |
| And they hauled it away in a couple of days |
| Now someone yell timber and take off your hat |
| It's a lot smaller down here on the ground |
| You're falling down, falling down, falling down |
| Falling down, falling down, falling down |
| Someone's falling down, falling down, falling down |
| Falling down, falling down, falling...down |
