Intro: E A9
E A9 E A9
When all the stars were falling I reached up like you said.
E A9 E A9
All the stars were falling; one hit me in the head
A9 C#m7 Am
And I fell down, down, down. I fell down, down.
( E A9 )(4x)
E A9 E A9
When all the stars were falling they fell from above
E A9
And I thought of hate and I thought of hate
E A9
And then I thought of love
A9 C#m7 Am
I fell down, down, down. I fell down, down.
E7
And I've learned how to dance from a Vincent Van Gogh
A
And the nights were wrapped in a white sheet.
E7
And now no one even says hello
A
'Cause I couldn't stand on my two feet.
C#m7 A9 Am Dsus2
I fell down. I fell down.

E A9 E A9 E A9 Am
Down, down, down, down. Down, down.
E A9
Now the peace you will find, in your own you have found,
E A9
The lights of the city are the stars on the ground.
E A9
I may not be a Quaalude living in a speed zone,
E A9
But I could be restful. I could be someone's home,
A9 C#m7 Am
If I fell down, and I fell down, down.
E A9 E A9 E A9 E
Now all the stars have fallen.
