C BmPost office clerks put up signs saying position closed
C BmAnd secretaries turn off typewriters and put on their coats
Gb CJanitors padlock the gates
Bm Gb
F GbFor security guards to patrol
Gb CAnd bachelors phone up their friends for a drink

F GbWhile the married ones turn on a chat show
C Bm C
C Gb CAnd they'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
(snip)
C Gb C GbNothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
Bm GbThe needle returns to the start of the song
F GbAnd we all sing along like before
C Bm C
C Gb CAnd we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
Then before verse 4 there's a wee instrumentally bit over the chords:
Bm Bm Bm Bm B C B CAlso, there's a second guitar with capo on the 5th fret playing:

Instr: Bm Fm Bm Fm B F B FHope this is of some use, and not too wrong.

C BmPost office clerks put up signs saying position closed

Gb CAnd bachelors phone up their friends for a drink
F GbWhile the married ones turn on a chat show
C Gb CAnd they'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
Gentlemen time please, you know we can't serve anymore
Now the traffic lights change to stop, when there's nothing to go
And by five o'clock everything's dead
And every third car is a cab
And ignorant people sleep in their bed
Like the doped white mice in the college lab
C Gb C GbNothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
Bm GbThe needle returns to the start of the song
F GbAnd we all sing along like before
C Gb CAnd we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
Telephone exchanges click while there's nobody there
The Martians could land in the carpark and no one would care
Close-circuit cameras in department stores
Shoot the same movie everyday
And the stars of these films neither die nor get killed
Just survive constant action replay
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
Bill hoardings advertise products that nobody needs
While angry from Manchester writes to complain about
All the repeats on TV
And computer terminals report some gains
In the values of copper and tin
While American businessmen snap up Van Goghs
For the price of a hospital wing
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
They'll burn down the synagogues at six o'clock
And we'll all go along like before
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow

tune: normal
capo: 5th fret (Try it without capo or capo at the 3rd fret,
it is easier to sing)
tempo: waltz (hear and count - you will agree)

Notes: This song is very easy to play and to sing.
It seems to be a good stuff to learn to change between the basic chords.
In the last verse the second and the third line seems strange to the metre.
Listen carefully to the song. It will be clear if you heard it.
