FALLING DOWN  (Tom Waits)    [tab by: AL#13]

capo on 4th fret

intro:  A   E  (2x)
 
          A                 E
I've come 500 miles just to see a halo
A                           E
Come from st. Petersburg, Scarlett 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 falling down, falling down
             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
