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
 
C
Chorus: Well I lied to the nation
EmWhile my reputation ran dry
C>From my lungs to my liver
EmClung to the river bank's side
CYeah well I'm back in the water
 
Doing what I oughtta
EmTrying 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)
 
C EmEnding: Falling down
C EmFalling down
C EmFalling down
C EmFalling down
 
(Play verse "riff" twice ending with slight crescendo on second time)

Heaven kows the weight of this crime
