Chorus: Em Is this world spinning round C Em Has this ship run aground Em What's that shape What's that sound C Em That's just me falling down Em Some of us are free Some are bound C Some will swim Em Some will drown Some of us are saints Some are clowns C Em Just like me they're falling down C7 Well I lied to the nation Em A Em While my reputation ran dry C7 From my lungs to my liver Em A Em I clung to the river bank's side C7 Yeah well I'm back in the water Doing what I oughta A D#7 Trying to lead an ordinary life Chorus: Is this world spinning round? Has this ship run aground? What's that shape, what's that sound? That's just me falling down Some of us are green, some are brown Some are lost, some are found Sight unseen baby, sound on sound Pray for me, I'm falling down I was lost in the jungle, crossed over enemy lines Well I got me a red nose by sleeping under hedgerows at night Yeah, well I tried levitation, flying in formation Heaven knows the weight of this crime Chorus: Is this, is this world spinning round? Has this ship run aground? What's that shape, what's that sound?
