CAPO: 2nd Fret



Intro:
G  C  (6x)

Verse 1:
G                                 C
Walking down the streets with the government
           G                        C
Passed the Sisters of Mercy and the tenement
        G                        C
Well, I need a good time just to get myself in line
      Am                     D7
I got time on my hands to be spent

Verse 2:
      G                      C
So, I slip and slide us to a sleazy bar
       G                                    C
See my friends, shake their hands, ask them how they are
            G                       C
But they're talking to drones, so I turn around and go
    Am                    D
Get splashed by a passing car


Chorus:
              G                 C                        A
Hey, isn't it strange___ how it all falls into place sometimes
         D7                 G
Isn't it all so perfectly divine


Instrumental:
G  C  G  C  G  C  G  C


Verse 3:
        G                       C
Well, I dragged my aching feet around the back
  G                C
I bump into a very special friend
       G                   C
And in no time at all, I'm stalking down the wall
    Am                  D
The boy have no lick of sense


Verse 4:
        G                     C
Well, I make it back home without a fall
G                        C
Lay back laughing on the kitchen wall
G                        C
Looking at the wife, she finally said, "Enough!"
  Am                         D
I wonder at the beauty of it all



Chorus:
         G                 C                        A
Isn't it strange___ how it all falls into place sometimes
         D7                 G
Isn't it all so perfectly divine


Instrumental:
G  C  G  C  G  C  G  C


Verse 5:
           G                         C
And in the cold, cold morning of the following day
       G                       C
I'm in bed and waiting for the breakfast tray
    G                        C
But all I find instead, is a message by the bed
         Am                  D
Saying, "Goodbye, baby, I'm away"


Verse 6:
     G                           C
So I slipped out of bed, put the radio on
   G                           C
An English cup of tea and some fried bacon
G                         C
Looking at that rain, I'm trying not to complain
          Am                            D
About the strangest going on and on and on


Chorus:
         G                 C                        A
Isn't it strange___ how it all falls into place sometimes
         D7
Isn't it all so perfectly


Chorus:
G                 C                        A
Strange___ how it all falls into place sometimes
         D7
Isn't it all so perfectly


Chorus:
G                 C                        A
Strange___ how it all falls into place sometimes
         D7               G
Isn't it all so perfectly strange
