John Mellencamp, también conocido como John Cougar o John Cougar Mellencamp, (nacido el 7 Octubre de 1951) es un autor e interprete de Rock Americano. Empezó llamándose John Cougar, nombre que cambió posteriormente a Cougar Mellencamp para acabar definitivamente con sólo Mellencamp.
John Mellencamp comenzó su carrera a finales de los 70 (de 1976 es su primer disco, que resultó un fracaso comercial); su popularidad se fue acrecentando aprovechando el tirón de la música de Bruce Springsteen

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.
> VERSE I: AG/A Well, some people ain't no damn good.
AG/A You can trust `em, you can't love `em. No good deed goes unpunished.
AG/A And I don't mind being their whippin' boy.
AG/A I've had that pleasure for years and years
AG/A No, no, I never was a sinner. Tell me, what else can I do?
AG/A Second best is what you get `till you learn to bend the rules
AG/A And time respects no person and what you lift up must fall
AG/A There waitin' outside to claim my crumblin' walls.
E Saw my picture in the paper, read the news around my face.
And now some people don't want to treat me the same.
> CHORUS:
AG When the walls come tumblin' down;
DGD When the walls come crumblin', crumblin';
AGDA When the walls come tumblin', tumblin' 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.
