INTRO: G C G C G
D
She was a girl from a one horse town
C G D G
The only place for miles around
D
Cutting hair in the modern style
C G D
Putting in the nine to five
C G C
But, every night it was the same old drea-eam
G D
On the cover of a magazine
C G
She looked good, but it could never come true
C D Em
'cause nothing ever happens round here
C D G
Nothing ever happens round here
D
She had a boyfriend in the town
C G D G
He spent his days just messing around
D
Stick shifts and steering wheels
C G D
Motorbikes and automobiles
C G C
And, every night it was the same old thi-ing
G D
Meet the boys for a couple of drinks
C G
Shoot pool and talk about girls
C D Em
And nothing ever happens round here
C D G
Nothing ever happens round here
CHORUS:
C
They said nothing, no nothing, no nothing
G D G
Nothing ever happens round here
C
Nothing, no nothing, no nothing
G D G
Nothing ever happens round here
D
One day in a local bar
C G D G
She heard a movie man was looking for a star
D
And everybody in the whole damn town
C G D
Got the call to come on down
C G C
And, when she walked into the roo-oom
G D
Every heart went boom, boom, boom, ("Who's that girl?")
C G
"She's exactly what we're looking for!"
C D Em
But nothing ever happens round here
C D G
Nothing ever happens round here
CHORUS:
C
They said nothing, no nothing, no nothing
G D G
Nothing ever happens round here
C
Nothing, no nothing, no nothing
G D Eb
Nothing ever happens round here
BRIDGE:
And so she took a screen test
Bb
No doubt that she was the best
F D
The camera fell in love with her
Eb D
Before she knew it she was on the way
G C G C G
To make that dream come true
D
Now she's living in Hollywood
C G D G
And everything is looking good
D
She thinks about the folks back home
C G D
And her boyfriend all alone
C G C
But, every night it's still the same old thing
G D
Meet the boys for a couple of drinks
C G
Shoot pool and talk about girls
C D Em
And nothing ever happens round here
C D G
Nothing ever happens round here
CHORUS:
C
They said nothing, no nothing, no nothing
G D G
Nothing ever happens round here
C
Nothing, no nothing, no nothing
G D G
Nothing ever happens round here
C
Nothing, no nothing, no nothing
G D G
Nothing ever happens round here
C
Nothing, no nothing, no nothing
G D G
Nothing ever happens round here
