Ub40 - If It Happens Again

[ chorus : ]
G# F#
if it happens again i’m leaving
G# F#
i’ll pack my things and go
G#
if it happens again
F#
there’ll be no looking back
G# F#
i won’t say i told you so

G#
you did what you were told
F#
and you took the strain
G#
been left out in the cold
F#
got yourself to blame
C#
but believe me ,
D# C#
if it happens again i’m leaving
D# C#
if it stays the same i’m gone
D#
when you’re stabbed in the back
C# D#
and there’s salt in the wound
C# G#
the it’s time to move along

[ chorus ]

[ interlude ]
D# – C# – D# – C# – D# – C# – D# – C# – G#

G#
no more spanners in the works ,
F#
all the works been done
G#
had your face rubbed in the dirt
F#
on show for every one
C#
but believe me
D# C#
if it happens again i’m leaving
D# C#
if it stays the same i’m gone
D# C#
when compromise is the song you sing
D# G#
it’s been going on to long
