                                       (then, quickly play Em)

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

      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 



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

   -ESTRIBILLO(CHORUS)



    G                   C        D
   And everyday when he gets the train



   G                        C         D
   Looks out the window and thinks in vain


   C          D            Em(aqui la otra guitarra toca la intro)(here the

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



   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
