Chord/Tab song: All Fall Down

When I was a lit[C]tle country boy I had a dream

Our [F]family wasn't poor but rich [G7]instead

I [C]took to the road instead of stayin' home to help

And that [F]dream just withered up inside my [G7]head

All fall [C]down all fall [F]down

When you [C]build your dreams on wishes they fall [G7]down

All fall [C]down all fall [F]down

When you [C]build your dreams on [G7]wishes all fall [C]down


When I was a strong young man I fell in love with Sue

I [F]wanted her to be my wife some[G7]day

But I [C]just couldn't bring myself to say Sue I love you

And that [F]dream just fell to the ground and blew [G7]away

All fall [C]down all fall [F]down

When you [C]build your dreams on wishes they fall [G7]down

All fall [C]down all fall [F]down

When you [C]build your dreams on [G7]wishes all fall [C]down


When I reached my middle age I hungered for success

And [F]things like fancy limousines [G7]and such

About as [C]close as I came to that fancy limousine

Was a [F]thirty thousand dollar greyhound [G7]bus

All fall [C]down all fall [F]down

When you [C]build your dreams on wishes they fall [G7]down

All fall [C]down all fall [F]down

When you [C]build your dreams on [G7]wishes all fall [C]down

When I reached my golden years I often had a dream

That [F]I'd be respected by socie[G7]ty

But [C]here I am on skid row with a bottle in my hand

And [F]free advice to give to fools like [G7]me

All fall [C]down all fall [F]down

When you [C]build your dreams on wishes they fall [G7]down

All fall [C]down all fall [F]down

When you [C]build your dreams on [G7]wishes they fall [C]down[G7]

All fall [C]down all fall [F]down

When you [C]build your dreams on [G7]wishes they fall [C]down
