[Eb] [Ab] Ronald Jimmy [Bb] says, gee, give the kids a few bob, [Eb] after all, shoob, it is Friday [Bb] night.
But how could I tell her I was out of a job?
From [Eb] now on, things were going to [Bb] be tight.
[F] How well I remember, [Bb] cut like a knife, [Eb] I was never a day [F] on the dole in my [Dm] life.
[Bb] Farewell my companions, my friends, my [F] workmates, farewell to the [Bb] paydays of pints and the cracks.
[Eb] We gave them our best years, now [Bb] they've paid us back, [F] by making us [Eb] yesterday's men sure as [G] hell.
[D] Well, I'd drive, now [Gbm] it's seldom I [Bm] walk.
[A] I [D] speak French, [Gbm] but I'd rather [Bm] not talk.
[A] [Em] Which suit will [G] I wear [A] tonight?
Take out [D] the brown, but in [Gbm] the end wear [Bm] the white.
[A] After shade stepping [D] out, [Db] stamping into the [Gbm] light, [G] remember the [D] moon on [Bm] the water [E] house.
And looking back on [A] all the years, [E]
[B] the loves, the sweetness and [E] the sorrow,
have made me what I [A] am today,
[B] and I'd do it all again [E] tomorrow.
It's been a good life, [A] far from the high life, [B] and I thank God that [E] this was my life.
We can't deny life, how [A] it flies by, life, [B]
and I thank God that [E] this was my life.
[E] [D]
[A]
Moons and dunes and [A] Ferris wheels, [Dbm] the dizzy [D] dancing way [A] you feel,
as [Bm] every fairy tale comes real.
I've looked at love [E] that way, [A] but now [Gbm] it's just another [A]
show.
They'll [Dbm] leave you laughing [Bm] when you [A] go, and if [Bm] you care, don't let them know, don't give yourself [E] away.
I've looked at love from [D] both [A] sides now, [D] from give [A] and take, and still [Dbm] somehow,
it's [D] love's illusions [A] I [Gbm] recall.
[Bm] I really don't [E] know love at [A] all.
[C] And I would walk 500 miles, [F] and I would walk [G] 500 more,
[C] just to be the man who walks a thousand [F] miles and [G] falls down at your door.
[C] I'd rather, rather, [F] [G] [C]
