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

Key: A Capo on 2nd fret (Chords shapes shown for key of G)

Well they broke off the locks and they opened the doors Pushed out the windows andpainted the floors Grew a little garden outside in the dust and sand

Raised up the roof til it touched the sky Picked up the pieces that were left to die Brought this building back with healing hands

When you see trouble You're bound to move it on the double Cause you leave your mark upon everything In your head those Liberty Bells still ring But we know that you don't even mean a thing you say

So you brought in the army to do job Of kicking in doors and swinging theie 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

And 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

It could happen to you, It could happen to you It could happen to you sometime when you least expect it Done by the one that you never suspected All your bills come due It could happen to you.

You really gatta 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'd bring it again

And 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 as the wrecking ball swings But all your riches won't mean a thing someday

Oh it could happen to you Oh it could happen to you Oh it could happen to you (it could happen to you) Oh it could happen to you
