[Intro]

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D G5 G5/D Csus2

[Verse]

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D

A little girl trapped in her knowledge and craft

G5 G5/D Csus2 G5

Came tripping to my room last night

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D

I cooked her a steak and I tried not to fake

G5 G5/D Csus2 G5

And still make everything alright

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D

She had dreads in her hair and problems and cares

G5 G5/D Csus2 G5

She tried hard not to let 'em show

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D

She was decent and sweet and I was sizin' up the meat

G5 G5/D Csus2 G5

But doubts fell in my mind like snow

[Chorus]

D5 Dsus2/C#

And when the shove comes down to love

Dsus2/C G/B

The facade falls down

D5 Dsus2/C#

And when the bricks fall from the tricks

Dsus2/C G/B

The facade falls down

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D G5 G5/D Csus2

(Progression repeats)

[Verse]

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D

It's a sunny afternoon and I'm sitting in my robe

G5 G5/D Csus2 G5

I'm dirty and I'm here alone

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D

There's a story on my table that talks about me

G5 G5/D Csus2 G5

And I want to stuff it down the author's throat

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D

And I'm sleeping with someone new every night

G5 G5/D Csus2 G5

And in the morning politely saying "bye"

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D

And I'm nowhere and no one, and I only wanna run

G5 G5/D Csus2 G5

And I feel like a hamburger bun

[Chorus]

D5 Dsus2/C#

And when you must believe or bust

Dsus2/C G/B

The facade falls down

D5 Dsus2/C#

When you're scared of a brand new care

Dsus2/C G/B

The facade falls down

D5 Dsus2/C#

I got no reason

Dsus2/C G/B

to believe

D5 Dsus2/C#

I got no reason

C5 D5 C5 B5 Am

but I'm New York Scumbag Tough

And I'll keep on truckin'

G5/D G5/E G5/D G5 G5/D Csus2

(Progression repeats from second chord)

[Verse]

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D

So night is falling and I'm getting' tired

G5 G5/D Csus2 G5

And it's time to get my slippers and books

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D

Got a sweater and glasses and something that passes

G5 G5/D Csus2 G5

For a way to get by in this world

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D

I'm getting' tired of so many different things

G5 G5/D Csus2 G5

I guess I'm just plain tired

G5 G5/D G5/E G5/D

Or maybe too intelligent to believe

G5 G5/D Csus2 G5

In the obvious side of things

[Chorus]

D5 Dsus2/C#

And when voice says make a choice

Dsus2/C G/B

The facade falls down

D5 Dsus2/C#

When your knees start to concede

Dsus2/C G/B

The facade falls down

D5 Dsus2/C#

When the shove comes down to love

Dsus2/C G/B

The facade falls down

D5 Dsus2/C#

And when the bricks fall from the tricks

Dsus2/C G/B D5 Dsus2/C#

The facade falls down

Dsus2/C G/B D5 Dsus2/C#

The facade falls down [Repeat: x5]
