Think For A Minute

The Housemartins


Tom: E

A                       B7
Something's going on, a change is taking place
A                                   B7
Children smiling in the street have gone without a trace
This street used to be full, it used to make me smile
And now it seems that everyone is walking single file

[Bridge]

And many hand their heads in shame
That used to hold them high
And those that used to say hello
Simply pass you by

[Chorus]

Think for a minute, stop for a minute
Think for a minute, stop for a minute

[Verse]

I always said it could, they never though it would
The people look so pitiful, I'm thinking that it should
And now it's almost here, now it's on it's way
I can't help saying told you so and have a nice final day

[Bridge]

And nothing I could say
Could ever make them see the light
Now apathy is happy that
It won without a fight

[Chorus]

Think for a minute, stop for a minute
Think for a minute, stop for a minute

[Bridge]

And many hang their heads in shame that used to hold them high
(think for a minute)
And those that used to say hello simply pass you by
(stop for a minute)
