Falling from Above
Neil Young
The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Grandpa said to cousin Jed Sittin' on the porch, "I won't retire But I might retread." "Seem like that guy singin' this song Been doing it for a long time. Is there anything he knows That he ain't said?" Sing a song for Freedom. Sing a song for Love. Sing a song for depressed angels Falling from above. Grandpa held the paper Pretending he could see. But he couldn't read Without his glasses on. "How can all those people Afford so many things? When I was young people wore What they had on." Mamma said, "A little love and affection In everything you do Will make the world a better place With or without you." A little love and affection In everything you do A better place With or without you. Slamming down a late night shot, The Hero and the artist compared Goals and visions and afterthoughts For the twenty first century. But mostly came up with nothing, So the truth was never learned. And the human race just Kept rollin' on. Rollin' through the fighting, Rollin' through the religious wars, Rollin' down the temple walls And the churches' exposed sores. Rollin' through the fighting. Through religious wars. Mostly came up with nothin'... "Grandpa here's your glasses, You'll see much better now," Said that young girl Of Edith and Earl's. But Grandpa just kept starin' He was lost in some distant thought Then he turned and he said To that young girl... "A little love and affection In everything you do, Will make the world a better place With or without you." With or without you. A better place... With or without you. With or without you. Hear that rooster crowin' Down on the Double E. It's a new morning Dawning on the green. Bouncing off the towers, The sun's heading down to the streets. The business meeting Window shades are drawn. Another morning edition Is headed for the porch, Because Grandma puts down the paper Before Grandpa raises his fork. A little love and affection In every thing you do, With or without you... Hear the rooster crowing Down on the Double E...
