[Intro]
E Emaj7 Amaj7 C#m B
[Verse]
E Emaj7
Standing in the wind and rain, I'm underneath your wheel tonight,
Amaj7 C#m B
Was underneath your heel tonight, this truth has brought us to our knees,
E Emaj7
Waiting here out in the street a prisoner under these lights,
Amaj7 C#m B Amaj7
Was holding fast not holding tight, will time reward us some reprieve.
[Chorus]
N.C.
And it's a lie we both
E Emaj7 Amaj7
Believed (fall down)
E Emaj7 Amaj7 B
Now you're lying there with me (fall down)
E
(fall down)
Emaj7 Amaj7
Just lay your head down...
C#m B
Just lay your head down
E Emaj7 Amaj7
Just lay your head down
C#m B
Just lay your head down
[Verse]
E Emaj7
Reading through the news today, I'm picturing your fading smile,
Amaj7 C#m B
I'm picturing your frozen eyes, those dreaded words slip from your lips,
E Emaj7
Could we please just start again, with---out this sense of pending dread,
Amaj7 C#m B Amaj7
These thunderclouds lie overhead, with---out this cage around my bed, love
[Chorus]
N.C.
And it's a lie we both
E Emaj7 Amaj7
Believed (fall down)
E Emaj7 Amaj7 B
Now you're lying there with me (fall down)
E
(fall down)
Emaj7 Amaj7
Just lay your head down...
C#m B
Just lay your head down
E Emaj7 Amaj7
Just lay your head down
C#m B Amaj7
Just lay your head down
[Chorus]
N.C.
And it's a lie we both
E Emaj7 Amaj7
Believed (fall down)
E Emaj7 Amaj7
Now you're lying there with me (fall down)
E Emaj7 Amaj7
Can we try to make it clean? (fall down)
[Bridge]
B A
Just fall down
B A
Just fall down
B A
Fall down
[Outro]
B A B
It's a secret that's unspoken, t'was the cause of all your tears,
A B
We'd rip the night wide open, t'was the morning that we feared,
A B
There's glass upon this playground, there's cocaine in your church,
A B
Is there water in this desert, is there water in this desert?
A B
Is there water in this desert?
N.C.
Fall Down..
