[N] [Em]
Don't get excited
Don't say you were
[D]
Nobody
noticed
Nothing was hurt.
It was [A] committed
[C] Discreetly it was [G] handled so [Bb] neatly and [F] it shouldn't [Em] surprise you at [Dm] all
You [A] know
[E] Break all the records
[Em] Burn the cassettes I'd be [D] lying if I told you that I had no regrets
There was [A] so many mistakes and what a [G] difference it makes
[Bb] But still [F] it shouldn't [C] surprise you at [Dm] all
You [Am] know
I said [C] it shouldn't surprise you at [Bb]
all You [A] know
[Dm] Don't look [Bb] now [D]
but [Gm] you [D]
have [Eb] changed
Your [Bb] best [Bm] friends [Cm] wouldn't
[D] tell [B]
you
[E] Now it's apparent
[Em] Now it's a fact
So [D] marshal your forces for another attack
You were [A] so young and [C] naive
I know it's [G] hard to [Bb] believe
But now it [F] shouldn't [C] surprise you at [Dm] all
You [Am] know
Though it [C]
shouldn't surprise you at [Bb]
all You [A] know
What [D]
[A] [Bb] [D]
[Gm] [D]
[Eb]
[Gm] [G]
[Cm] [A] [D]
[B]
[Em] has it cost you?
What have you won?
The [D] sins of the fathers are the sins of the sons
It was [A] always within [C] you
It will [G] always [Gm] continue
It [F] shouldn't surprise [C] you at [Dm]
all
You [Am] know
I said [C] it shouldn't surprise you at [Am] all
You know
