Nothing Ever Happens - Del Amitri - tabbed by Lee Martin --------------------

^FPost office clerks put up signs saying position cl^Dmosed ^FAnd secretaries turn off typewriters and put on their c^Dmoats J^Bbanitors padlock the g^Fates

For se^Ccurity guards to patr^Dmol And b^Bbachelors phone up their fr^Fiends for a drink

While the ma^Crried ones turn on a cha^Bbt show Prechorus

And the^Fy'll all be lonely toni^Bbght and lonely tomo^Frrow Verse 2

^FGentlemen time ^Dmplease you know we can't serve any more ^FNow the traffic^Dm lights stop when theres nothing to go

^BbAnd by five o c^Flock everythings dead ^CAnd every t^Dmhird car is a cab

^BbAnd ignorant peo^Fple sleep in there beds Like ^Cthe dope whi^Dmte mice in the college lab

Chorus

N^Fothing ever h^Bbappens, n^Fothing happens at ^Bball The n^Dmeedle returns to the st^Bbart of the song And we ^Call sing along like bef^Bbore

And we'll a^Fll be lonely toni^Bbght and lonely tomo^Frrow ^FTelephone exchanges cl^Dmick while theres nobody there

^FThe martians co^Dmuld land in the car park and no-one would care ^BbClose-circui^Ft cameras in department stores

^CShoot the^Dm same movie every night ^BbAnd the stars of^F these films neither died nor get killed

Ju^Cst to surviv^Dme constant action replay

Chorus

N^Fothing ever h^Bbappens, n^Fothing happens at ^Bball The n^Dmeedle returns to the st^Bbart of the song And we ^Call sing along like bef^Bbore

And we'll a^Fll be lonely toni^Bbght and lonely tomo^Frrow

Then before verse 4 there's a wee instrumentally bit over the chords: Gm Dm Gm Dm G F G F

^FBill hoarding^Dms advertise products that nobody needs ^FWhile angry f^Dmrom Manchester writes to complain about ll the repeats on tv

^BbAnd computer te^Frminals report some gains ^COn the value o^Dmf copper and tin

^BbWhile Amer^Fican businessmen snap up van Goths Fo^Cr the p^Dmrice of a hospital wing

^FNothing ever ^Bbhappens, ^Fnothing happens at^Bb all The n^Dmeedle returns to the st^Bbart of the song- And we ^Call sing along like bef^Bbore

^FNothing ever ^Bbhappens, ^Fnothing happens at^Bb all

^DmThey'll burn down^Bb the synagogues at six o clock An^Cd we'll^Bb all go along like before

And we'll a^Fll be lonely toni^Bbght and lonely tomo^Frrow Corrections suggestions etc to 3sm@orange.net
