Falls chords by X Ambassadors

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)



Intro:
B5

Verse 1:
B5
Held onto your letters
B5
They’re getting better with age
B5
Now my desk’s like a pulpit
B5
And my bed like a stage

B5
See, all these debts keep me under
B5
Ain’t no words worth the cost
B5
If I should carry me farther
B5
Than the load of a lover once lost

Chorus:
B5                                          E5
We used to walk down the road to Buttermilk Falls
            B5
Dip in your feet, put your hair down
           E5
Thinking I just won’t make it
         B5
And if I go back tomorrow
                       E5
Would I still feel the same?
         B5
I put my feet in the water but the water got hotter

So I just keep my body by the edge of the bay

Verse 2:
B5
Make believe we were younger
B5
Forget the money we owe
B5
You got your prior commitments, baby
B5
Just wish I had some of my own
B5
‘Cause ain’t no loving me
B5
Before you know what I’m worth
B5
‘Cause you are the life of the party
B5
And I am the scum of the earth

Chorus:
B5                                          E5
We used to walk down the road to Buttermilk Falls
            B5
Dip in your feet, put your hair down
           E5
Thinking I just won’t make it
         B5
And if I go back tomorrow
                       E5
Would I still feel the same?
         B5
I put my feet in the water but the water got hotter

So I just keep my body by the edge of the bay
