-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

      Em
   His family taught him right from wrong




   With local tales and children's songs

   Am
   Sunday school was his shelter



   D
   With his friends Joe and Walter



   Em
   Now those days seem far away




   An empty swing where he once played



   Am
   Now Bill's grown so fat and bold



    D
   He never thought that he'd grow old

   Em
   His sales job it gets him down




   Same old faces, same old sounds



   Am
   Heart attacks, orthopaedic backs



   D
   Documents and labelled racks



   Em
   His wife can't stand the sight of him




   With his routine glass of gin



   Am
   She makes his lunch of processed ham



      D
   And waits in for the meter man

   Em
   Another day, another gin




   His kids don't even notice him



   Am
