Fall From Grace – Stevie Nicks
[Intro]
Am
[Verse]
Am
I choose to be his confidant
G
And to keep him from the fire
F G Am
I choose to be quietly discreet if that is his desire
G F
I touch with gossamer wings to be quiet around you
Dm
There is so much going on you could easily
Am Em
Wake up with a stranger
[Chorus]
F C
it's not something that you plan
Dm C
One night in a world of pain
F G
And you finally understand
Am D G Dm
Not all the king's horses, not all the king's men
F D
Could put it back together
[Turn Around]
Am G
[Verse]
Am G
You say you wouldn't do this for very long
F G
The applause from it all is so defining
Am G
Well it bounces off the wall at you
F G Am
When the miracle is happening
G
High priestess...she's the keeper of the peace in this
F C G Am G
Twice as much, intensified what people will do
F D
To get...this...high
[Chorus]
F
It's not something you plan
Dm C
One night in a world of pain
F G
And you finally understand
Am D G
Not all the king's horses, not all the king's men
F D
Could put it back together
[Turn Around]
Am
[Verse]
Am
And now alone in my room as it all begins again
Am
Was I so wrong why am I always so intense
Am
In this same place I sit the same place as before
Am
Well I came all the way here
F G
Just to watch you walk out that do - or
[Verse]
Am
I didn't ask when you shook your head
C
I always accepted what you said
F G
As the truth and the truth only
Am
Well it's not enough that you depend on me
G F
And it's not enough that you say you love me
D
It's not enough to just save face
Am Em F G Am Em
Because sometimes, you just fall from grace
F G Am Em F Am Em F G
Sometimes, you just fall from grace
[Solo]
D Am
[Verse]
Am
Maybe I am calmer now maybe things are fine
Am
Maybe I made the whole thing up
G
Maybe it isn't a lie
Am
Maybe the reason I say these things
G
Is to bring you back alive
Am
Maybe I fought this long and this hard
Just to make sure you - survi - ve
D Am
Just to make sure you - survi - ve
