C C  Dm Dm  Am Am  F F   G G  (2x) 


C C
He stays home home for work this time
Dm Dm
He never really told his wife
Am Am F F G G C C Dm Dm
He never really told a lie but this time he decides that it's alright.
Am Am F F G G
It's alright.
C C Dm Dm
No one really knows his mind and no one knows behind his eyes.
Am Am
The man deserves a medal
F F G G C C Dm Dm
But he's never really won a prize before.
Am Am F F G G
He goes to lock the door.




F F Am Am G G
He is falling
C C Em Em G G F F
And though he knows it's not
Am Am G G Em Em G G
The world looks down and frowns.



C C Dm Dm Am Am
Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy,

We all need you now.

C C
Someone said where you going
Dm Dm
Someone said to you goodbye
Am Am F F G G C C Dm Dm
They deflect the disrespect when they say that they blame it on the times
Am Am F F G G
They blame it on the time.
C C Dm Dm
We all know you're qualified to fix a chair and love your wife
Am Am F F G G C C Dm Dm
They all know you're qualified but they lie when they blame it on the times.
Am Am F F G G
And we blame it on the times.

He is falling

And though he knows it's not

The world looks down and frowns.

Get up Johnny boy because we all need you now.

We all need you now



Am Am F F C C G G
I will carry all your names and I will carry all your shame
Am Am F F C C G G
And I will carry all your names and I will carry all your shame
Am Am F F C C G G
And I will carry all your names and I will carry all your shame

You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy.

Great chords, I love this song! My only suggestion is that the lyrics are wrong in the one part "He is falling..."

It's "He is falling in love/ He knows it's enough/ And the world looks down and frowns."

I play this with D-Du-uDu almost through the whole song. But when it is part: He is falling…., I play this with just DDDD, and part with: I will carry…., I play with D-Du
