You Tell Me That I'm Falling Down
Words: Anna McGarrigle
Music: Carol S. Holland

Intro: D-riff G F#7 Em A D

    D                Bm              G               D
You tell me that I'm falling down, a drifter with no role
    D              Bm               G               D
You tell me that I need a friend to help me take control
     D              Bm             G            D
Well let it be, I'm not alone, I'm only lonely, see
    D                 Bm             G              D
And you can't tell me where to go or what or who to be

|  D                 G
|I am exactly what I am
|    Em                F#m            A
|And not the way you'd like to see me be
|  D                      G
|I look outside long as I can
|                F#7               Em             A    D
|Then I close my eyes and watch my world unfold before me

  D                Bm                G             D
I may not lead the simple life, I've no love of my own
   D               Bm                  G             D
If no one gives me all her heart, I'll manage with a loan
    D            Bm              G               D
I'm very used to feeling sad, it doesn't make me cry
    D             Bm               G                D
And yes I do know how to love, and what you say's a lie
