[Verse 1]
G Bm
He was walkin' through the alley way
C G
Where the drifters sleep and the wild dogs play
Am Em
The moon was black, the sky was grey
C D
He thought he was alone

[Verse 2]
G Bm
She was waiting at the rose hotel
C G
across the street from the wishing well
Am Em
Turned the latch and broke a nail
C D
Checked her mobile phone

[Chorus]
C G D Em
Sometimes you run, sometimes you stall
C G D
Sometimes you don't get up at all
C D G
Sometimes you run, sometimes you fall

[Verse 3]
G Bm
He bought a ticket on the uptown tram
C G
Got off at 8th and Birmingham
Am Em
Wondered if she gave a damn
C D
about him anymore

[Verse 4]
G Bm
She hadn't seen him in a year or so
C G
Why he called she did not know
Am Em
She had the oldies on the radio
C D||
and someone at the door

[Chorus]
C G D Em
Sometimes you run, sometimes you stall
C G D
Sometimes you don't get up at all
C D G
Sometimes you run, sometimes you fall
