All Fall Down Roger Miller
When I was a lit[C]tle country boy I had a dream
Our [F]family wasn't poor but rich [G7]instead
I [C]took to the road instead of stayin' home to help
And that [F]dream just withered up inside my [G7]head
All fall [C]down all fall [F]down
When you [C]build your dreams on wishes they fall [G7]down
All fall [C]down all fall [F]down
When you [C]build your dreams on [G7]wishes all fall [C]down
When I was a strong young man I fell in love with Sue
I [F]wanted her to be my wife some[G7]day
But I [C]just couldn't bring myself to say Sue I love you
And that [F]dream just fell to the ground and blew [G7]away
All fall [C]down all fall [F]down
When you [C]build your dreams on wishes they fall [G7]down
All fall [C]down all fall [F]down
When you [C]build your dreams on [G7]wishes all fall [C]down
When I reached my middle age I hungered for success
And [F]things like fancy limousines [G7]and such
About as [C]close as I came to that fancy limousine
Was a [F]thirty thousand dollar greyhound [G7]bus
All fall [C]down all fall [F]down
When you [C]build your dreams on wishes they fall [G7]down
All fall [C]down all fall [F]down
When you [C]build your dreams on [G7]wishes all fall [C]down
When I reached my golden years I often had a dream
That [F]I'd be respected by socie[G7]ty
But [C]here I am on skid row with a bottle in my hand
And [F]free advice to give to fools like [G7]me
All fall [C]down all fall [F]down
When you [C]build your dreams on wishes they fall [G7]down
All fall [C]down all fall [F]down
When you [C]build your dreams on [G7]wishes they fall [C]down[G7]
All fall [C]down all fall [F]down
When you [C]build your dreams on [G7]wishes they fall [C]down
