  ----------------------------------------------------------

     Has      the      ship    run      a  -  ground

  

  

  What's that shape, what's that sound?

  That's just me falling down

  

  Some of us are free, some are bound

  Some will swim, some will drown

  Some of us are saints, some are clowns

  Just like me, they're falling down

  

  Chorus:

  -----------

           C

  Well I lied to the nation 

                                        Em

  While my reputation ran dry

                 C

  >From my lungs to my liver

                                          Em

  Clung to the river bank's side

                        C

  Yeah well I'm back in the water

                     

  Doing what I oughtta

                                           Em

  Trying to lead an ordinary life

  

  

  Verse two (as verse one):

  ---------------------------------

  Is this world spinning round

  Has the ship run aground

  What's that shape, what's that sound

  That's just me falling down

  

  Some of us are green, some are brown

  Some are lost, some are found

  Sight unseen, baby, sound on sound

  Pray for me, I'm falling down

  

  

  Chorus Two (as chorus one):

  -------------------------------------

  I was lost in the jungle

  Crossed over enemy lines

  Well I got me a red nose

  By sleeping under hedgerows at night

  Yeah well I tried levitation

  Flying in formation

  Heaven knows the weight of this crime

  

  

  (Repeat verse one omitting second stanza)

  

  

  Ending:

  -----------

  C         Em

  Falling down

  C         Em

  Falling down

  C         Em

  Falling down

  C         Em

  Falling down

  

  (Play verse "riff" twice ending with slight crescendo on second time)
