Fallen

FALLEN SARAH McLACHLAN

KEY OF B

-5 -5b -4 -3 -7 5 -3
Hea-ven bent to take my hand

-2b 5 5 5 -3 4
And lead me through the fire

-3 4 5 5 5 -4 -4 -3
Be the long a-wait-ed an-swer

-1 -1 5 5 5 -4 -3
To a long and pain-ful fight

-5 -5b 5 -4 5 -4 -3
Truth be told I’ve tried my best

-1b 5 5 5 5 -3b -3
But some-where a-long the way

-1 -3 -3 -3 -4 -4 -3 -3 -3b -3 -2b
I got caught up in all there was to of-fer

-1b -2 -3 -3 -3 -4 -4 -4 5 -5b 5
And the cost was so much more than I could bear

(CHORUS)

5 -5 -6b -6 -5 -5
Though I’ve tried, I’ve fall-en

-5 -6 -5b -5 -5b -5 -5 -4
I have sunk so low I’ve messed up

-5 7 -5b -5 -6b 5 -5 -5 -5 -4
Bet-ter I should know so don’t come round here

-4 -5 -6b -6 -6b -5 -6b
And tell me I told you so

VERSE 2

-5b -5 -5b 5 -3 -4 5 -3
We all be-gin with good in-tent

5 5 5 -3 -4
Love was raw and young

-3 -4 5 5 5 -3 -4 5 -3
We be-lieved that we could change our-selves

-1b -4 5 5 -3 -4
The past can be un-done

5 -4 -5 -5b 5 -4 5 -4 -3 -1b
But we car-ry on our back the bur-den

5 5 5 -4 -4
Time al-ways re-veals

-4 -5 -6b -5 -6b -6 5 5
In the lone-ly light of morn-ing

5 -5 -6b -5 -6b -6 -5
in the wound that would not heal

5 -5 -6b -6b -6b -5 -6b -5 -6 -6b -5
It’s the bit-ter taste of los-ing ev-ry-thing

-4 -6 -6b 7 -6b
That I’ve held so dear

(CHORUS)

VERSE 3 same as 1
Heaven bent to take my hand
I’ve Nowhere left to turn
I’m lost to those I thought were friends
To everyone I know
Oh they turned their heads embarassed
Pretend that they don’t see
That it’s one missed step
One slip before you know it
And there doesn’t seem a way to be redeemed

(CHORUS)

(Repeat 2nd half of first verse)

(CHORUS)

(Repeat Verse 2)

(CHORUS TO END)
