[Intro]
Em   Em   C   Em (x2)
 
[Chorus 1]
        Em
Is this world spinning round
           C         Em
Has this ship run aground
             Em
What's that shape
             Em
What's that sound
            C           Em
That's just me falling down
 
                Em
Some of us are free
          Em
Some are bound
           C
Some will swim
           Em
Some will drown
                Em
Some of us are saints
           Em
Some are clowns
          C                  Em
Just like me they're falling down
 
Em   Em   C   Em (x2)
 
[Verse 1]
        C7
Well I lied to the nation
                        Em   A   Em
While my reputation ran dry
         C7
From my lungs to my liver
                            Em    A   Em
I clung to the river bank's side
               C7
Yeah well I'm back in the water
       C7
Doing what I oughta
           A               Eb7
Trying to lead an ordinary life
 
[Chorus 2]
        Em
Is this world spinning round
           C         Em
Has this ship run aground
             Em
What's that shape
             Em
What's that sound
            C           Em
That's just me falling down
                Em
Some of us are green
           Em
Some are brown
          C
Some are lost
          Em
Some are found
         Em
Sight unseen baby
          Em
Sound on sound
          C             Em
Pray for me I'm falling down
 
[Verse 2]
       C7
I was lost in the jungle
  C7                Em    A   Em
Crossed over enemy lines
        C7
Well I got me a red nose
     C7                        Em     A  Em
By sleeping under hedgerows at night
             C7
Yeah well I tried levitation
C7
Flying in formation
A                               Eb7
Heaven knows the weight of this crime
 
[Chorus 3]
                   Em
Is this... Is this world spinning round
          C         Em
Has this ship run aground
             Em
What's that shape
             Em
What's that sound
            C           Em
That's just me falling down
 
[Outro]
        Em
La, la, la, la, la, la
        C           Em
La, la, la, la, la, la
        Em
La, la, la, la, la, la
        C           Em
La, la, la, la, la, la
 
[Finale]
C        Em

C        Em
