(Verse two)
Never wanted to be A part of history
I have my days in the sun
A beach bum a man for all seasides
Guidance counselor said Your scores are anti-heroic
Computer recommends Hard-drinking calypso poet
Studied life at sea Studied life in bars
Never passed my S.A.T.'s
So I thought I'd study extra hard

(CHROUS)
If It All Falls Down falls down falls down
I have learned my trade from the inside out
I can strum real hard I can play real loud
I can charm a crowd If It All Falls Down
If It all Falls Down falls down falls down
I can warm a crowd I can make them shout
I can juggle verbs adverbs and nouns
I can make them dance till they all fall down

Am7
We had plenty of doctors
G6(add 5th)/B
We had plenty of lawyers
C7
We had people to make us things
G6(add 5th)/D
We had people to sell us those things
Em7                 G6
We didn't have enough room for those things
Am7 	                 G6(add 5th)/B
We build lots of self storage
C7          G6(add 5th)
Calypso poet shortage
Em7 	          D/F# (single notes) A F# D A E(to chorus)
Calypso poet shortage

 (Chorus)
D/F#  G 	   D/A  Em/B 	  D 	   Em   D/B  C
If It  All Falls Down  falls down falls down
           D         C         G
I'll have filled that void from city to town

I'll have spent my money and taken my bows

I'll have had my fun If It All Falls Down

If It All Falls Down falls down falls down

If they solve my life if they find me out

Never thought to keep all I have found

I have had my fun If It All Falls Down

If It All Falls Down falls down falls down

I can charm a crowd till they snake danced round

With calypso beat down island sound

I can make them dance till they all fall down

If It All Falls Down falls down falls down

I can charm a crowd I can make them shout

I can juggle verbs adverbs and nouns

I can make them dance till they all fall down
