E - B - C#m - B - A - B
[Verse 1]
EA
She says, you know the monkey bar rules,
BC#m/E
As she kisses away his playground bruise,
EA
You don?t have to skip a bar each time,
BE
To make it to the other side,
AB
She picked him up from out of the sand,
C#mBAC#mF#mB
Then tied the shoelace that read, Superman,
[Chorus]
EA
We all fall down
BE
It?s the gettin? back up that really counts,
EA
We live and we learn,
BC#m
To help someone up when it?s their turn,
AB
In life there?s only one guarantee,
C#mBAC#mF#mB
Your feet won?t always be on the ground,
E - A - B
?Cause we all fall down,
[Verse 2]
EA
She says I know what you?re goin? through,
BC#m/E
As she talks to the door of her daughter?s room,
EA
Your heart feels like it?s broken in two,
BE
But, baby, I?m here for you,
AB
The door opened and she stepped inside,
C#mBAC#mF#mB
She put her arms around her and said, it?s ok to cry,
[Chorus]
EA
We all fall down
BE
It?s the gettin? back up that really counts,
EA
We live and we learn,
BC#m
To help someone up when it?s their turn,
AB
In life there?s only one guarantee,
C#mBAC#mF#mB
Your feet won?t always be on the ground,
E - A - B
?Cause we all fall down,
[Verse 3]
EA
He?s forty-five and his job is gone,
BC#m/E
Cleans out his desk and he heads on home,
EA
Sees his kids out playin? in the yard,
BE
It?s been a while since he?s been hit so hard,
AB
He?s as scared as a man can be,
C#mBAC#mF#mB
He tells his wife and she says, honey, look at me,
[Chorus/Outro]
EA
We all fall down,
BE
It?s the gettin? back up that really counts,
EA
We live and we learn,
BC#m
To help someone up when it?s their turn,
AB
In life there?s only one guarantee,
C#mBAC#mF#mB
Your feet won?t always be on the ground,
E - B - C#m - B - A - B
?Cause we all fall down,
E - B - C#m - B - A - B
we all fall down,
E - B - C#m - B - A - B
we all fall down,
E - B - C#m - B - A - B
we all fall down,
E - B - C#m - B - A - B
we all fall down,
