Key: G
Introduction:
G
It seems like years and a million tears
D
Since you've left the old hometown
Now you've changed they say and the great white way
G
Is your new stomping ground.
Well, it's plain to see you've forgotten me
C
'Cause you never write or call
D
But I'll be around when they let you down
G
And I'll catch you when you fall.
Chorus
G
Well I'll catch you when you fall
D
There's no one else but you.
Now, you're riding high but honey by and by
G
You're gonna cry for love that's true.
And when you're uptown baby
C
Starts giving you the stall.
D
Well I'll be around when they let you down
G
And I'll catch you when you fall.
G
Well, they've turned your head, ?cause I've heard it said
D
You're ashamed of us back home.
But I'll bet the sound of a southern bound
G
Still chills you to the bone.
With your haughty pose and your uptown clothes
C
You aren't fooling me at all
D
When you're feeling bad this ol' country lad
G
Is gonna catch you you fall.
(Repeat Chorus)
