     Words and Music by:  Greg Keelor and Jim Cuddy
     
     Key: A
     Capo on 2nd fret (Chords shapes shown for key of G)
     
     
     
               G    
     Well they broke off the locks and they opened the doors 
     C
     Pushed out the windows andpainted the floors
     D                                            G       Gsus4  G 
     Grew a little garden outside in the dust and sand
     
     G
     Raised up the roof til it touched the sky 
     C
     Picked up the pieces that were left to die 
     D                                       G
     Brought this building back with healing hands
     
     Bm      C
     When you see trouble
     Bm               C   
     You're bound to move it on the double
     Am                   Bm
     Cause you leave your mark upon everything
     C                  Bm
     In your head those Liberty Bells still ring
     Am                          Bm               D
     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:
     G  C                    G   C
     It could happen to you, It could happen to you   
     G                     D
     It could happen to you sometime when you least expect it 
     Em                             A
     Done by the one that you never suspected 
     C                   D
     All your bills come due
     G
     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
     
     G                     C
     Oh it could happen to you
     G                     C
     Oh it could happen to you 
     Oh it could happen to you (it could happen to you) 
     Oh it could happen to you
