Verse 

A                      Asus A 
When you're in a dream 
                               E 
And you think you got your problems all nailed down 
A                   Asus A 
Pieces of the scheme 
                    E 
Seem to rattle up and then to rattle down 
Amaj7                    Dmaj7 
And when you start to fall 
             Amaj7                 Dmaj7 
And those footsteps they start to fade 


Bm                                        E 
Well then you know you're going down (going down) 
Bm                                    E 
Yeah, you're falling all around (going down) 
Bm                                 E    
And you know you're going down (going down) 
     D          A 
For the last time 

Verse 

A                    Asus  A  
When you're in the air 
                              E 
And you're thinking you'll drift off into the west 
A                           
Your friends polite, advise 
   Asus 
Hey look you're pushing too hard 
E 
And perhaps you need a rest 
Amaj7                    Dmaj7 
And when you start to fall 
               Amaj7                  Dmaj7 
And all those footsteps they start to fade 


Bm                                        E 
Well then you know you're going down (going down) 
Bm                                     E 
Yeah, you're crashing upside down (going down) 
Bm                                   E  
And you know you're going down (going down) 
     D                
For the last time... 

Bridge 

Amaj7                    A7 
Time's not what it seems 
                      D                             Dm 
It just seems longer, when you're lonely in this world 
Amaj7                  A7 
Everything it seems would be brighter 
        D                            Dm 
If your nights were spent with some girl 


       Bm                            E 
Yeah, you're falling all around (going down) 
          Bm                          E 
Yeah, you're crashing upside down (going down) 
        Bm                                 E 
Oh, oh, and you know you're going down (going down) 
     D            A 
For the last time
