Verse 1
G 
There's
C 
G 
a  light on up in Simon's window
C 
G 
Lies alone with his ceiling fan on
C 
G 
One room flat with a sink
and toaster oven
C 
G 
Transcendent crooked
picture on the wall
Em 
G 
I'll fall in  but you can't
walk over me, babe
Em 
G 
I'll fall in but you can't
C 
G 
cross over me
C 
G 
Am 
G 
Born in the fifties, lost in sixty -seven
C 
G 
Lives atop Woolwoods,
Dsus4 
G 
a five -and     -dime in town
C 
G 
Lies in bed and thinks the
green balls have no answer
C 
G 
No rhyme or reason
why his life went wrong
C 
G 
He took Cleveland to win
Am 
C

G 
the World Series
C 
G 
Dsus4 
G 
for the past 30 years or       more
C 
G 
And his grandpa picked the South
Dsus4 
G 
and his father picked the      Russians
C 
G 
And he picked Ar gentina
to win the Falklands War
I've fallen, but you can't
walk over me, babe
I've fallen, but you can't cross over me
Son of a waitress,
his father owned an Exxon
C 
G 
He had a Pinto till it blew
Dsus4 
G 
up in       the back
C 
G 
Voted for Mondale, Loveport,
and Rockefeller
C 
G 
He said Nixon was
the greatest of them all
I've fallen but you can't
walk over me, babe
I've fallen but you can't cross over me
Sad and low and close to the ground
Sad and low but not quite down
C 
G 
Am 
G 
C 
G 
C 
G 
What left him alone
was his pride and libations
C 
G 
Thought he had it all,
regrets what's left behind
You had a wife,
Dsus4 
G 
but they never came to reason
C 
G 
I'm tired of al ways be ing wrong,
and I'm tired of loving you
C 
G 
Tired of always be ing wrong,
and I'm tired of loving you
I've fallen, but you can't walk over me
I've fallen, but you can't cross over me
And now the light's off,
up in Simon's window
The corner of his mouth
curled up into a smile
C 
G 
He sleeps it off, the sink it is dripping
C 
G 
He's sad and low,
but you can't put him down
C 
G 
Sad and old,
