[Verse]
Bb
There are some folks I used to know
     Cm
Who used to smile and say hello
 F
And spin the world and turn the page
F
Entertaining from the stage
     B
But father time forever true
 Ab        Cm
Loves its own and me and you
     F
And disappear just like the sun
F               Bb
When the day is done
                                F
The world is falling down, hold my hand
        Cm                   F
It's a lonely sound, hold my hand
Gb    Gm                     F  Cm
We'll follow the breeze and go like the wind
     F                          Bb
And look for a place where the willows bend
         Bb                         Cm
Oh, the world is falling down, hold my hand
          F            Bb
Hold my hand, hold my hand
Bb
Summer's gone and winter's here
Cm
We had a lot of rain this year
F
The news is really very sad
F
The time is late, the fruit is bad
    Bb
The morning's come and roosters crow
           Cm
But people have nowhere to go
     F
And disappear just like the sun
F                Bb
When the day is done
Bb                                  Cm
The world is falling down, hold my hand  
Fm                             Gb
It's a lonely sound, hold my hand
       Gm            Cm               Ab
We'll follow the sun and live for the day
    Cm      Fm                  Bb
And look for a place where the children play
         Bb                              Cm
Oh, the world is falling down, hold my hand
         F             Bb
Hold my hand, hold my hand
         Bb                              Cm
Oh, the world is falling down, hold my hand
         F             Bb
Hold my hand, hold my hand
