Skyfall

Lyrics/melodi: Adele / Paul Epworth

This is the main song in the 23rd James Bond movie "Skyfall". It was written by Adele and producer Paul Epworth. The song is the only one that has won both the Golden Globe, the BRIT Award and the Oscar for Best Song. They have very elegantly managed to bring in the chords from the Bond theme.

Intro

Verse 1

This is the end, hold your breath, and count to ten,

Feel the earth move, and then hear my heart burst again,

For this is the end, I've drowned, and dreamt this moment,

So overdue I owe them, swept away, I'm stolen!

Chorus

Let the sky fall, when it crumbles,

We will stand tall, and face it all together,

Let the sky fall, when it crumbles,

We will stand tall, and face it all together at sky fall ,

At sky fall!

Verse 2

Sky fall is where we start,

A thousand miles, and poles apart

Where worlds collide, and days are dark, you may have my number,

You can take my name, but you'll never have my heart!

Chorus

Let the sky fall, (Let the sky fall!)

when it crumbles, (When it crumbles!)

We will stand tall, (We will stand tall) face it all together,

Let the sky fall, (Let the sky fall!)

when it crumbles, (When it crumbles!)

We will stand tall, (We will stand tall!)

Face it all together at sky fall.

Break

(Let the sky fall) (when it crumbles!)

(We will stand tall!)

(Let the sky fall) (when it crumbles)

(We will stand tall!)

Bridge

Where you go, I go, what you see, I see,

I know I'd never be me without the security of your loving arms,

Keeping me from harm, put your hand in my hand, and we'll stand!

Chorus

Let the sky fall, (Let the sky fall!)

when it crumbles, (When it crumbles!)

We will stand tall, (We will stand tall) face it all together,

Let the sky fall, (Let the sky fall!)

when it crumbles, (When it crumbles!)

We will stand tall, (We will stand tall!)

And Face it all together at sky fall.

Ending

Let the sky fall we will stand tall

at sky fall Hoo-oo, oo-oo, oo
