FALLING DOWN (Tom Waits) [tab by: AL#13] capo on 4th fret intro: A E (2x)

I've come ^A500 miles just to ^Esee a halo ^ACome from st. Petersburg, Sc^Earlett and me Well I ^Aopen my eyes, I was ^Eblind as can be When you ^Agive a man luck, he ^Emust fall in the sea And she ^Bmwants you to steal and get ^Ecaught For she ^Bmloves you for all that you ^Eare not

When you're f^Aalling down, falling d^Eown 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
