Tumbling Down (CHORDS) by Cockney Rebel
[Verse 1]~
D A Bm A G D A
Gee,, but it's hard when one lowers one's guard to the vultures
D A Bm A G D A
Now me I regard it's a torturous hardship that smoulders
Bm G A
Like a peppermint eaten away
Bm G A
Will I fight,, will I swagger or sway..?
D A Bm A G D A
Hee hee,, my lady,, she cries like a baby to scolders
D A Bm
See her tumbling down
A G D A
Tumbling down
[Verse 2]~
D A Bm A G D A
Hail to the monkey,, we're having a funky reunion
D A Bm A G D A
Wasted and sunk,, he can only have Sunday communion
Bm G A
He got nicotine stains in his eyes
Bm G A
He got nothing to protect but his pride
D A Bm A G D A
Oh! smother the kiss or be drownded in blissful confusion
D A Bm
See it tumbling down
A G D A
Tumbling down
[Verse 3]~
D A Bm A G D A
Juvenile tale,, see the Titanic sail into Brighton
D A Bm A G D A
The Hemingway stacatto,, the tragic bravado can frighten!
Bm G A
To be here there and everywhere’s fine
Bm G A
But do you have to be so swift all the time..?
D A Bm A G D A
Deliver the dawn to the Moulin Rouge on the horizon
D A Bm
Watch it tumbling down
A G D A
Tumbling down
Tumbling down
[Verse 4]~
D A Bm A G D A

Our dear,, look what they’ve done to the blues,, blues,, blues
D A Bm A G D A
