We Fall Down Lyrics & Tabs by Gerald Albright
We Fall Down
guitar chords lyrics
Cursing every step of the way,
he bore a heavy load
To the market ten miles away,
the journey took its toll
And every day he passed
a monastery's
high cathedral walls
And it made his life
seem meaningless and small
And he wondered how it would be
to live in such a place
To be warm, well fed and at peace,
to shut the world away
So when he saw a priest who walked,
for once, beyond the iron gate
to shut the world away
So when he saw a priest who walked,
for once, beyond the iron gate
He said,
"Tell me of your life
inside the place",
and the priest replied
We fall down, we get up,
we fall down, we get up
We fall down, we get up
And the saints
Are just the sinners
Who fall down and get up
Disappointment
followed him home,
he'd hoped for so much more
But he saw himself in a light
he had never seen before
'Cause if the priest
who fell could find
the grace of God to be enough
Then there must be some hope
for the rest of us
There must be
some hope left for us
'Cause we fall down,
we get up,
we fall down, we get up
We fall down, we get up
And the saints
are just the sinners
Who fall down and get up
We fall down, we get up,
we fall down, we get up
We fall down, we get up
And the saints
are just the sinners
Yeah, the saints
are just the sinners
Who fall down and get up
(We fall down, we get up,
we fall down, we get up)
(We fall down, we get up)
And the saints
are just the sinners
Who fall down and get up
(We fall down, we get up,
we fall down, we get up)
(We fall down, we get up)
And the saints
are just the sinners
(We fall down, we get up,
we fall down, we get up)
(We fall down, we get up)
And the saints
are just the sinners
(We fall down, we get up,
we fall down, we get up)
(We fall down, we get up)
And the saints
are just the sinners
Yeah, the saints
are just the sinners
Who fall down and get up
