Some Men Fall
by Walt Wilkins
Written by: Wilkins/Mark Irwin/Josh Kear
[Intro]
D Bm C 4X
D
Yesterday some guy in Atlanta,
Bm C
Climbed one of those huge construction cranes.
D
He said he had a gun and in the noonday sun,
Bm C
He kept the whole world at bay.
D Bm C
And the folks on the ground tried to talk him down all day
D Bm C
But in the soft Georgia summer twilight, he jumped anyway.
G Bm C
- Some men fall, some fly.
G Bm C
Some men stumble, some shine.
Am
In the grandest scheme sometimes it seems
F
There ain't no scheme at all.
G Bm C
Some men fall, some fly. -
D Bm C
And yesterday, the guy who played Archie Bunker, he died, too.
D
And so did John Lee Hooker,
Bm C
One of the last real bad asses of the blues.
D Bm C
Now you know, they both went through all the same trails we do...
D
But they kept right on walkin,
Bm C
Like there was something that they knew.
G Bm C
- Some men fall, some fly.
G Bm C
Some men stumble, some shine.
Am
In the grandest scheme sometimes it seems
F
There ain't no scheme at all.
G Bm C
Some men fall, some fly.
D
And last night, after the longest day of the year,
Bm C
A baby boy was born
D Bm C
To a world that can be as cold and mean as it can be safe and warm.
D Bm C
And hopefully, his family will clothe him and feed him,
D
And then give him every hope and prayer,
Bm C
Cause little brother, you're gonna need 'em.
G Bm C
- Some men fall, some fly.
G Bm C
Some men stumble, some shine.
Am
In the grandest scheme sometimes it seems
F
There ain't no scheme at all.
G Bm C
No, just some men fall, some fly.
G Bm C
Yeah, some men fall, some fly.
C
Some men fly, yeah fly.
