From: hamilton@elec.uq.oz.au (Lefty) CRUMBLIN' DOWN ============== John Cougar Mellencamp (From the album "Uh-huh") Yes, even more JCM. This is one of my favourite JCM songs. The next will probably be "The Authority Song". Once again, this is from a book of Mellencamp chords, not my own dodgy interpretation. Medium Rock Tempo ----------------- > INTRO: ---------------------3--x-x-x-------------------------3---3-3-------------| ---------------------3--------------------------------3---3-3-----------2-| ---0---2-2-0-2---2-0-4----------------0-2-2-0-2---2-0-4---4-4---------2---| ---0---2-2-0-2---2-0-5----------------0-2-2-0-2---2-0-5---5-5-----4-------| -------0-0-0-0---0-0-0--------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---0-0-0---0-0-------------| --------------------------------------------------------------------------| > VERSE I:
Well, soAme people G/A ain't no damn good. You canA trust 'em, you can't love 'emG/A. No good deed goes unpunished.
And I Adon't mind beinG/Ag their whippin' boy. I've Ahad that pleasure G/Afor years and years
No, Ano, I never was a sinner. G/A Tell me, what else can I do' SAecond best is what you get G/A'till you learn to bend the rules
And Atime respects no person and G/Awhat you lift up must fall There Awaitin' outside to claim G/Amy crumblin' walls.
SEaw my picture in the paper, read the news around my face.
And now some people don't want to treat me the same. > CHORUS:
WheAn the walGls come tumblin' down; D When the walls come Gcrumblin', crumblDin';
WheAn the walls G come tumblin',D tumblin' A down.
> Repeat Intro > VERSE II: (same chord pattern as Verse I) Well some people say I'm obnoxious and lazy, I'm uneducated, my opinion means nothin'. But I know I'm a real good dancer. Don't need to look over my shoulder to see what I'm after. Everybody's got their problems. Ain't no new news here. I'm the same old trouble you've been havin' for years. Don't confuse the problem with the issue, girl. It's perfectly clear. Just a human desire to have you come near. Want to put my arms around you, feel your breath in my ear. You can bend me, you can break me but you better stand clear. > Repeat Chorus. > Repeat Intro and fade ============================================================================ CHORDS: A x 0 2 2 2 0 G/A x 0 5 4 3 3 E 0 2 2 1 0 0 D x x 0 2 3 2 G 3 X 0 0 0 3 ============================================================================ Stuart Hamilton University of Queensland St Lucia AUSTRALIA ============================================================================ "If you really want to taste some cool success, better learn to play guitar.
