Status Quo
Tabbed By: Belavista Man On: 01/04/08 E-mail: A great song also on Francis’ solo album. Slightly different then that version but good. I only got the chords so far but enjoy them anyway. When the streets are empty late at night Just the silence fills me with delight s’alright Rain is falling trees are still My mind is racing but my heart is as well It’s not funny it’s a shame He’s the greatest fighter in the world Got into a brawl over some girl sweet girl He’ll get better the scars will heal His eyes will open but his heart never will It’s not funny it’s a shame There’s a funny side to it all Seeing someone else take a fall When it’s you it happens to sending you Tumbling tumbling sends you tumbling on Such a funny side to it all Take another tumble and fall Am Bm (hold) Everybody’s tumbling tumbling on [Solo - same chords as verse] Different strokes for different folks it’s true (so true) Changes in our lives go right on through and through It gets better as time goes on Some of us are gonna end up alone It’s not funny it’s a shame There’s a funny side to it all Seeing someone else take a fall When it’s you it happens to sending you Tumbling tumbling sends you tumbling on Such a funny side to it all Take another tumble and fall Everybody’s tumbling tumbling on There’s a funny side to it all Seeing someone else take a fall When it’s you it happens to sending you Tumbling tumbling sends you tumbling on Such a funny side to it all Take another tumble and fall Everybody’s tumbling tumbling on When the streets are empty late at night Just the silence fills me with delight s’alright Rain is falling trees are still My mind is racing but my heart is as well It’s not funny it’s a shame He’s the greatest fighter in the world Got into a brawl over some girl sweet girl He’ll get better the scars will heal His eye will open but his heart never will It’s not funny it’s a shame There’s a funny side to it all Seeing someone else take a fall When it’s you it happens to sending you Tumbling tumbling sends you tumbling on Such a funny side to it all Take another tumble and fall Everybody’s tumbling tumbling on etc...
