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

The vow that we made
C Bb C
You broke it in two

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
