...SHUT UP... by Madness

from 'Seven' (1981)

Intro:

C E Am, C Am

Verse 1:

[(Am)] I tell you [G]I didn't [B7]do it,
'Cos [Em]I [F]was-[F#]nt [G]there.
[G] Don't blame [B7]me;
It [Em]just [F]is-[F#]n't [G]fair.

[A] You listen to [C#7]their side,
Now [F#m]listen to mine.
[A] Can't think of a [C#7]story,
Sure you'll [F#m]find me sometime.

Chorus 1:

[Em] Now pass the [G]blame,
And don't blame [Bm/F#]me.
[Dm] Just close your [F/C]eyes,
And count to [Am/E]three.
(One two three).

[Cm] Then I'll be [Eb]gone,
And you'll for-[Gm]get;
[Bbm] The broken [C#]window, T.V [Em]set.

Verse 2:

[C] It wasn't me [B7]either,
I'm [Am]just his mate.
[C] He told me to [B7]stand here,
And [Am]watch the gate.

[G] I've got a [B7]wife,
And three [Em]kids,[F]
[F#] You [G]know?
[G] They'll tell you,
[B7] I'm straight,
At [Em]least [F]I [F#]think [G]so.

[A] I'm as [C#7]honest,
As the [F#m]day is long,
[A] The longer the [C#7]daylight,
The [F#m]less I do wrong.

Chorus 2:
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/madness/shut_up_crd_ver_2.html )
[Em] Now pass the [G]blame,
And don't blame [Bm/F#]me.
[Dm] Just close your [F/C]eyes,
And count to [Am/E]three.
(One two three).

[Cm] Then I'll be [Eb]gone,
And you'll for-[Gm]get;
[Bbm] The broken [C#]window, T.V [Em]set.

And count to [Am/E]three.

[Cm] Then I'll be [Eb]gone,
And you'll for-[Gm]get;
[Bbm] The broken [C#]window, T.V [Em]set.
