[Intro]
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D G5 G5/D Csus2
[Verse]
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D
A little girl trapped in her knowledge and craft
G5 G5/D Csus2 G5
Came tripping to my room last night
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D
I cooked her a steak and I tried not to fake
G5 G5/D Csus2 G5
And still make everything alright
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D
She had dreads in her hair and problems and cares
G5 G5/D Csus2 G5
She tried hard not to let 'em show
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D
She was decent and sweet and I was sizin' up the meat
G5 G5/D Csus2 G5
But doubts fell in my mind like snow
[Chorus]
D5 Dsus2/C#
And when the shove comes down to love
Dsus2/C G/B
The facade falls down
D5 Dsus2/C#
And when the bricks fall from the tricks
Dsus2/C G/B
The facade falls down
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D G5 G5/D Csus2
(Progression repeats)
[Verse]
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D
It's a sunny afternoon and I'm sitting in my robe
G5 G5/D Csus2 G5
I'm dirty and I'm here alone
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D
There's a story on my table that talks about me
G5 G5/D Csus2 G5
And I want to stuff it down the author's throat
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D
And I'm sleeping with someone new every night
G5 G5/D Csus2 G5
And in the morning politely saying "bye"
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D
And I'm nowhere and no one, and I only wanna run
G5 G5/D Csus2 G5
And I feel like a hamburger bun
[Chorus]
D5 Dsus2/C#
And when you must believe or bust
Dsus2/C G/B
The facade falls down
D5 Dsus2/C#
When you're scared of a brand new care
Dsus2/C G/B
The facade falls down
D5 Dsus2/C#
I got no reason
Dsus2/C G/B
to believe
D5 Dsus2/C#
I got no reason
C5 D5 C5 B5 Am
but I'm New York Scumbag Tough
G5
And I'll keep on truckin'
G5/D G5/E G5/D G5 G5/D Csus2
(Progression repeats from second chord)
[Verse]
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D
So night is falling and I'm getting' tired
G5 G5/D Csus2 G5
And it's time to get my slippers and books
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D
Got a sweater and glasses and something that passes
G5 G5/D Csus2 G5
For a way to get by in this world
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D
I'm getting' tired of so many different things
G5 G5/D Csus2 G5
I guess I'm just plain tired
G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D
Or maybe too intelligent to believe
G5 G5/D Csus2 G5
In the obvious side of things
[Chorus]
D5 Dsus2/C#
And when voice says make a choice
Dsus2/C G/B
The facade falls down
D5 Dsus2/C#
When your knees start to concede
Dsus2/C G/B
The facade falls down
D5 Dsus2/C#
When the shove comes down to love
Dsus2/C G/B
The facade falls down
D5 Dsus2/C#
And when the bricks fall from the tricks
Dsus2/C G/B D5 Dsus2/C#
The facade falls down
Dsus2/C G/B D5 Dsus2/C#
The facade falls down [Repeat: x5]
