Always The Sun
Stranglers
Intro: [D] [G] [A] [G]
[D] How many times have you woken up and prayed for the [G] rain
[D] How many times have you seen the papers apportion the [G] blame
[A] Who gets to [G] say [A] who gets the work and who gets to [G] play
[A] I was always told at school [G] everybody should get the [A] same
[D] How many times have you been told if you don't ask you don't [G] get
[D] How many liars have taken your money
Your mother said you shouldn't [G] bet
[A] And who has the [G] fun [A] is it always the man with the [E7] gun
[G] Someone must have told him if you [Bm] work too hard
You can [A] sweat
Chorus:
[Bm] There's always the [D] sun (always the [G] sun)
[G] There's always the [Bm] sun
[D] Always [Em] always [G] always the [A] sun
[D] [G] [A] [G]
[D] How many times have the weathermen told you stories
That made you [G] laugh
Y'know it's [D] not unlike the politicians and the leaders
When they do things by [G] half
[A] And who gets the [G] job [A] of pushing the [E7] knob
[G] That sort of responsibility [Bm] you draw straws for
If you're mad e[A]nough
