Sing a song for the wrong and the wicked and the strong
and the sick as thick as thieves.
For the faceless fear that was never so near,
too clear to misbelieve.
Well the sea is jumping salty
and the porpoise has the blues,
my recollection's faulty
and I cannot find my shoes.
And my wiring is misfiring
due to cigarettes and booze,
I'm behind in my dues, I just now got the news.
He seems to tell us lies and still we will believe him,
then together he will lead us into darkness, my friends.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
The man says stand to one side, son,
we got to keep big ball rolling.
It's just a question of controlling
for whom the bell is tolling.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
There'll be suffering and starvation
in the streets, young man.
Just where have you been, old man?
Just look out of your window, man.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
Well, it ain't nobody's fault but our own,
still, at least we might could show the good sense
To know we've been wrong,
and it's already taken too long.
So we bring it to a stop then we take it from the top,
we let it settle on down softly like your gently falling snow
or let it tumble down and topple like the temple long ago.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
Keep hollerin' timber. I hope it don't fall on me.
I'm hollerin' timber, woah, timber, let it all fall down
Go on, let it fall down, let it fall down
let it all fall down together.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
  You can use a bottleneck for the 2nd guitar part (standard tuning)
  just from 00:19 to 00:38 (measures 7 to 12, both included).
