     "The Fallen" (acoustic) - Franz Ferdinand
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: Standard

*Note: the progression of the song goes according to the real acoustic version.

Intro: -------- ("la, la, la" verse)

                  
Some say you're trouble, boy
                   
Just because you like to destroy
                      
All the things that bring the idiots joy
                          
Well, what's wrong with a little destruction?

                  
And the Kunst won't talk to you
                   
Because you kissed St Rollox Adieu
                    
Because you robbed a supermarket or two
                               
Well, who gives a damn about the prophets of Tesco?

                  
Did I see you in a limousine
                     
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
                        
Turn the rich into wine, walk on the mean


For the fallen are

the virtous among us

Walk among us

Never judge us, yeah we're all...

         
Up now and get 'em, boy
         
Up now and get 'em, boy
                               
Drink to the devil and death to the doctors

                  
Did I see you in a limousine
                  
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
                         
Five thousand users fed today
                             
As you feed us, won't you lead us
                
Yeah we're all 
              

              

              
So we stole and drank Champagne
              
On the seventh seal you said you never feel pain
                 
"I never feel pain, won't you hit me again?"
                               
"I need a bit of black and blue to be a rotation"

              
In my blood I feel the bubbles burst
                       
There was a flash of fist, an eyebrow burst
                         
You've a lazy laugh and a red white shirt
                        
I fell to the floor fainting at the sight of blood

             
Did I see you in a limousine
                 
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
                       
Turn the rich into wine, walk on the mean
                  
Be the Magdalene or virgin
                       
You've already been and we've already seen


For the fallen are the

virtous among us

Walk among us

Never judge us, we're all blessed

Intro --------
      (la, la, la)

              
So I'm sorry if I ever resisted
                  
I never had a doubt you ever existed
                    
I only have a problem when people insist on
                        
Taking their hate and placing it on your name

                  
Some say you're trouble, boy
                   
Just because you like to destroy
                      
You are the word, the word is 'destroy'
                          
I break this bottle and think of you fondly

                
Did I see you in a limousine
                
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
                        
Turn the rich into wine, walk on the mean
                           
Be the Magdalene or virgin, you've already been
                          
It's not a jag in the arm, it's a nail in the beam
                
Woo-hoo
                
Woo-hoo
                
Woo-hoo
                
Woo-hoo
                          
Yeah, you've already been, we've already seen

For the fallen are the

virtous among us

Walk among us
                          
If you judge us, we're all damned
