As the World Falls Down(1986)
David Bowie

Based on v2 Agathoraphobia's, transposed +3 to C, and including foojitsu's suggestions
re Bowie's major/minor switches, and some changes of my own (moving chords onto, or
closer to - depending on transposition - the right words, changing one chorus chord from 
minor to sus2).

               C
There's such a sad love
C                            Am
Deep in your eyes, a kind of pale jewel
Am                          F
Open and closed within your eyes
               Fm              C
I'll place the sky within your eyes
               C
There's such a fooled heart
C                            Am
Beating so fast in search of new dreams
  Am                              F
A love that will last within your heart
               Fm               C
I'll place the moon within your heart

           (Chorus)
       Dm
As the pain sweeps through
         Fm
Makes no sense for you
      C
Every thrill has gone
       Dsus2           C
Wasn't too much fun at all
C                     Am
But I'll be there for you-oo-oo
       Am          C
As the world falls down
C
Falling
Am                      Fm
(As the world) Falling down
           C
Falling in love
               C
I'll paint you mornings of gold
              C
I'll spin you Valentine evenings
             Am
Though we're strangers til now
Am                                  F
We're choosing the path between the stars
            Fm               C
I'll lay my love between the stars

          (Chorus)
       Dm
As the pain sweeps through
         Fm
Makes no sense for you
      C
Every thrill has gone
       Dsus2           C
Wasn't too much fun at all
        C              Am
But I'll be there for you-oo-oo
       Am          C
As the world falls down
