FALLING DOWN - Duran Duran

C#m            B            F#            C#m
Once was a man who consumed his place and time
            B            F#
He thought nothing could touch him
C#m            B            F#
But here and now it’s a different storyline
  C#m            B            F#
Like the straw he is clutching

E                        G#m
Why has the sky turned grey
C#m                        G#m
Hard to my face and cold on my shoulder
E                        G#m
And why has my life gone astray
C#m                        B            A
Scarred by disgrace, I know that its over

C#m            E            B            F#
Because I’m falling down
C#m            E            B            F#
With people standing round
C#m            E            B
But before I hit the ground
F#            C#m            E            B            F#
Is there time Could I find someone out there to help me?

C#m            B            (F#)            C#m
Howl at the wind rushing past my lonely head
            B            (F#)            C#m
Caught inside its own motion
C#m            B            (F#)            C#m
How I wish it was somebody else instead
C#m            B            (F#)            C#m
Howling at all this corrosion

E                        G#m
Why did the luck run dry
C#m                        G#m
Laugh in my face, so pleased to desert me
E                        G#m
Why do the cruel barbs fly?
C#m                        B            A
Now when disgrace can no longer hurt me

Because I’m falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time
Could I find someone out there to help me?

Because I’m falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time
Could I find someone out there to help me?
I don’t know…. Why
