Nothing Ever Happens [F]Del Amitri

Intro
F

Verse 1
F Post office clerks put up signs saying position Dm7 closed
And F secretaries turn off typewriters and put on their Dm7 coats
Bb Janitors padlock the F gates... for seCcurity guards to Bb patrol
And Bb bachelors phone up their F friends for a drink...
while the C married ones turn on a Bb chat show
And they'll F all be lonely toBbnight and lonely toFmorrow

Verse 2
F Gentlemen time please you know we can't serve any Dm7 more
Now the F traffic lights change to stop when there's nothing to Dm7 go
And by Bb five o' clock everything's F dead...
and C every third car is a Bb cab
And Bb ignorant people F sleep in their beds
like the C doped white mice in the Bb college lab

Chorus
And F nothing ever Bb happens... F nothing happens at Bb all
The Dm needle returns to the Bb start of the song... and we C all sing along like beBbfore
And we'll F all be lonely toBbnight and lonely toFmorrow F

Verse 3
F Telephone exchanges click while there's nobody Dm7 there
The F Martians could land in the car park and no one could Dm7 care
The Bb closed-circuit cameras in F department stores shoot the C same movie every Bb day
And the Bb stars of these films neither F die nor get killed...
just to surCvive the constant action Bb replay

Chorus
And F nothing ever Bb happens... F nothing happens at Bb all
The Dm needle returns to the Bb start of the song... and we C all sing along like beBbfore
And we'll F all be lonely toBbnight and lonely toFmorrow F

Instrumental
G Dm7 G Dm7
F G F G F

Verse 4
F Bill hoardings advertise products that nobody Dm7 needs
While F 'Angry from Manchester' writes to complain about Dm7 all the repeats on TV
And Bb computer terminals F report some gains on the C values of copper and Bb tin
While ABbmerican businessmen F snap up Van Goghs for the C price of a hospital Bb wing

Outro
And F nothing ever Bb happens... F nothing happens at Bb all
The Dm needle returns to the Bb start of the song and we C all sing along like beBbfore
And F nothing ever Bb happens... F nothing happens at Bb all
They'll Dm burn down the synagogues Bb at 6 o' clock and we'll C all go along like beBbfore
And we'll F all be lonely toBbnight and lonely toFmorrow
