Song: Falling Out Of Love
By:   Mary Gauthier


[intro:]  |Bm  |Gmaj7  |E   |Bm  |
          |Bm  |Gmaj7  |E   |Bm  |

[verse: 1]
Bm                  Gmaj7
  It's a cheap hotel    the heat pipes hiss
E                                      Bm
  The bathroom's down the hall and it smells like piss
Bm                    Gmaj7
  It's another night    in another town
E                               Bm
  And I'm another blues traveler   headed down
 
 
[verse: 2]
Bm                           Gmaj7
  Falling out of love is a dangerous thing
           E                       Bm
With its slippery slopes and its weighted wings
         Bm                       Gmaj7
With its birds of prey circling overhead
  E                     Bm
Casting vulture shadows    on barren beds
 
[chorus:]
       |E    |E       |Bm    |Bm    
Let me out,     set me free
       |E    |E       |Bm    |Bm   |Gmaj7 |E   |Bm  |
Let me out,     set me free
       |Bm   |Gmaj7 |E   |Bm  | 
 
 
[verse: 3]
Bm                     Gmaj7
The clock inside the church bell tower
E                 Bm
  Rings your name     every hour
Bm                      Gmaj7
   I see your face, I touch your hair
           E            Bm
Then the ringing fades     and nobody's there
 
  
[verse: 4]
Bm                          Gmaj7
  Falling out of love is a treacherous thing
           E                    Bm
With its crucible kiss and its ravaged ring
Bm                            Gmaj7
  With its holy whispers and labyrinth lies
E                Bm
  Sacriligious hungry sighs
 
[chorus:]
       |E    |E       |Bm    |Bm    
Let me out,     set me free
       |E    |E       |Bm    |Bm   |Gmaj7 |E   |Bm  |
Let me out,     set me free
       |Bm   |Gmaj7 |E   |Bm  | 
 
[verse: 5]
Bm                   Gmaj7
 I walk the streets,    I taste the dirt
E                       Bm    
  I am flesh and blood,    and my body hurts
Bm                         Gmaj7
   I search your silence looking for a crack
        E                    Bm
For a passageway where I can pull you back
 
 
[verse: 6] 
Bm                         Gmaj7
Falling out of love is a tedious thing
           E                      Bm
With its jailhouse smirk and its chain gang swing
Bm                            Gmaj7
  Its time to serve and its sentence set
          E             Bm
With its warm blood and cold sweat
 
[coda: chorus]
       |E    |E       |Bm    |Bm    
Let me out,     set me free
       |E    |E       |Bm    |Bm   |Gmaj7 |E   |Bm  |
Let me out,     set me free
       |Bm   |Gmaj7 |E   |Bm   {finish} |
