It Could Happen To You - Blue Rodeo ---------------------- >From the CD: Tremelo WEA Catalogue Number: CD 19253 Words and Music by: Greg Keelor and Jim Cuddy Transcribed by: Drake Hirasawa ([email protected])
Key: A Capo on 2nd fret (Chords shapes shown for key of G)
G They broke off the locks and they opened the doors C Pushed out the windows and painted the floors DGGsus4G Grew a little garden outside in the rust and sand
G Raised up the roof til it touched the sky C Picked up the pieces that were left to die DG Brought this building back with healing hands
BmC When you see trouble BmC You're bound to move in on the double AmG/B Cause you leave your mark upon everything CG/B In your head those Liberty Bells still ring AmG/BD But we know that you don't even mean a thing you say
So you brought in the army to do your job Of kicking in doors and swinging their clubs Back in the morning to watch themselves on the news
You're doing the bidding of the money men If it turns out right, they'll call you friend One little favour, how could you really refuse
Oh my heart is sinking Same old useless worn out thinking You live your life in te court of kings Bow to the ruler and kiss the ring But we don't even understand a thing you say
Chorus: GCGC It could happen to you, It could happen to you GD It could happen to you sometime when you least expect it EmA Done by the ones that you never suspected CD All your bills come due G It could happen to you.
You really gotta wonder what you did it for Cause you don't need an army to move out the poor You brought it out once I know you could bring it again
Oh my heart is sinking Same old useless worn out thinking You live your life in the court of kings Count your money as the raven sings Safe and sound when the wrecking ball swings But all your riches won't mean a thing someday
GC Oh it could happen to you GC Oh it could happen to you Oh it could happen to you (it could happen to you) Oh it could happen to you
