   D      D/B      Bm/E  D/F#    Asus4  A

   D               D/B
      Last night, dreaming,

   Em             A
      So brightly gleaming,

   F#m                Bm
      Falling from a place so high,

           Em           A7sus4  A
      that you and I...

   D               D/B
      Last night, falling,

           Em                        A
      like rain from the front porch awning,
      
    F#m                      Bm   B(!)
      tumbling down from the sky above
      
             Em
      like falling in love,

              A
      like falling . . .

   Dmaj9
   Fallin, fallin,

   Dmaj9/B              Em     A
   last night fallin in love.

   Dmaj9
   Fallin, fallin,

   Dmaj9/B              Em     A
   can't help falling in love . . .

   Sometimes it hurts to say
   Ain't nothing's gonna change my way

   Fallin, fallin
   Last night falling in love

   Last night fallin
   A star from a distant callin
   Tumblin down from a sky so high
   That you and I (whooa, you and I)

   Fallin, fallin
   Last night falling in love
   Fallin, fallin
   I can't help fallin in love

   Sometimes it hurts to say
   Ain't nothing's gonna change my way

   Fallin, fallin
   Last night falling in love
   Fallin, fallin
   Can't help fallin in love
