C Am
I'm the living result
F G

I'm a man who's been hurt a little too much
C E7 Am
F
and I've tasted the bitterness of my own tears
C E7 Am
F
sadness is all my lonely heart can feel

C F C F
I
can't stand up for falling down
C F C F
I can't
stand up for falling down

simple though love is
still it confused me
why
I'm not loved the way I should be
now I've lived with heartaches
and I've
roomed with fear
I've dealt with despair
and I've wrestled with tears

I
can't stand up for falling down
I can't stand up for falling down

F
Fm
the vow that we made
C Bb C
you broke it in two
F
Fm G
but that don't stop me from loving you

I can't stand up for
falling down
I can't stand up for falling down
