Belle & Sebastian – “If You Find Yourself Caught In Love”
D DMaj7 F#7
If you find yourself caught in love
G D
Say a prayer to the man above
G D
Thank him for everything you know
G D
You should thank him for every breath you blow
D DMaj7 F#7
If you find yourself caught in love
G D
Say a prayer to the man above
G D
Thank him for every day you pass
G D
You should thank him for saving your sorry ass
E
If you’re single, but looking out
A
You must raise your prayer to a shout
G Gadd11 G
Another partner must be found
Gm Gadd11 Gm
Someone to take your life beyond
Gadd11 Gm DMaj7
Another TV “I Love 1999”
A
Just one more box of cheapo wine
D DMaj7 F#7
If you find yourself caught in love
G D
Say a prayer to the man above
(same chords as VERSE 1 until Dmaj7)
E
But If you don’t listen to the voices then my friend
A
You’ll soon run out of choices
G Gadd11 G
What a pity it would be
Gm Gadd11 Gm
You talk of freedom don’t you see
Gadd11 Gm DMaj7
The only freedom that you’ll ever really know
A B
Is written in books from long ago
G Gadd11 A
Give up your will to Him that loves you
Bm G Gadd11
Things will change, I’m not saying overnight
A
You’ve gotta start somewhere
Bm A
Start by kidding all you care
D DMaj7 F#7
G D

D D7
If you find yourself out of love
Gm D
Shed a tear for the one you love
Gm D
Tell your boss that you’ve gone away
Gm D
Down your tools for a holiday
E
If you’re going off to war then I wish you well
A
But don’t be sore
G Gadd11 G
If I cheer the other team
Gm Gadd11 Gm
Killing people’s not my scene
Gadd11 Gm DMaj7
I prefer to give the inhabitants a say
A B
Before you blow their town away
G Gadd11 A
I like to watch them play
Bm G Gadd11 A
I like to marvel at the random beauty of a simple village girl
Bm A
Why should she be the one who’s killed?
