All Fall Down Chords

(ver. 1)
Midge Ure
[Intro]
Em D Em D Em Bm A D

[Verse]
     Em                      D
When I was a boy there's a dream that I had
       Em                          D
That a war if it's fought was for good against bad
      Em                        Bm
And I woke up to find that the world had gone mad
         A         D
And we'd all fall down
       Em                      D
And I feel like a child again sitting observing
        Em                      D
You're toying with power, your fingers are burning
     Em                          Bm
You're pushing so hard that the worms won't be turning
      A         D
We'll all fall down
           Em                      D
While you try to pretend you're a god upon high
           Em                     D
With your party ideals and your squeaky clean lies
     Em                                  Bm
When it comes to the crunch you're not smarter than I
          A         D
And we'll all fall down

        Em                      D
If it's colour or creed or your old time religion
      Em                        D
Well fighting for that shows a pure lack of vision
     Em                          Bm
The fight that we strive is the fight to survive
          A         D
And we'll all fall down
      Em                      D
Well look in the mirror and what do you see
     Em                  D
An American, Russian, a soldier or me
            Em                             Bm
When you've all pressed the buttons just where will you be
         A         D
When we all fall down

[Instrumental]
Am C G Em Am C G Am   2x

[Verse]
         Em                      D
It gets harder to see just what future's in store for us
 Em                          D
Hard to see through all the wool you pull over us
 Em                           D
Words that you give are just words to console us
      A         D
We'll all fall down
      Em                          D
And what will you do when you've pulled the release
          Em                        D
When the sound of the thunder has drowned out the pleas
    Em                      Bm
Cos after all that was your idea of peace
        A         D
When we all fall down
    Em                   D
No sun for a world that once stood so tall
    Em                          D
No wind's going to blow and no rain's going to fall
     Em                         Bm
No flowers for graves, in fact no graves at all
        A         D
When we all fall down

[Instrumental]
Am C G Em Am C G Am   8x
