G (320003@1)                             D (xx0232@1)                   GDear (320003@1)Sir I write this note to you to tell you of my plight
C (x32010@1)                              G (320003@1)            DFor (xx0232@1)at the time of writing it I'm not a pretty sight
C (x32010@1)             G (320003@1)                D (xx0232@1)             C (x32010@1)                     
My body is all black and blue, my face a deathly grey
        G (320003@1)               C (x32010@1)          D (xx0232@1)          GAnd (320003@1)I write this note to say why I am not at work today

G (320003@1)                                          D (xx0232@1)             GWhile (320003@1)working on the fourteenth floor some bricks I had to clear
C (x32010@1)                         G (320003@1)               DBut (xx0232@1)tossing them down from such a height was not a good idea
       C (x32010@1)          G (320003@1)             D (xx0232@1)           CThe (x32010@1)foreman wasn't very pleased he is an arkward sod 
         G (320003@1)          C (x32010@1)                 D (xx0232@1)          GAnd (320003@1)he said I had to cart them down the ladders in me hod

G (320003@1)                                        D (xx0232@1)          GWell (320003@1)clearing all these bricks by hand it was so very slow
         C (x32010@1)                 G (320003@1)              DSo (xx0232@1)I hoisted up a barrel and secured a rope below
       C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)               D (xx0232@1)          CBut (x32010@1)in me haste to do the job, I was to blind to see
         G (320003@1)             C (x32010@1)                 D (xx0232@1)       GThat (320003@1)a barrel full of building bricks was heavier than me

G (320003@1)                                 D (xx0232@1)             GAnd (320003@1)so when I untied the rope the barrel fell like lead
       C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)               DAnd (xx0232@1)clinging tightly to the rope I started up instead
     C (x32010@1)          G (320003@1)                 D (xx0232@1)    CI (x32010@1)shot up like a rocket, and to my dismay I found
       G (320003@1)         C (x32010@1)             D (xx0232@1)          GThat (320003@1)halfway up I met the bloody barrel coming down

G (320003@1)                               D (xx0232@1)                  GWell (320003@1)the barrel broke me shoulder as to the ground it sped
     C (x32010@1)                   G (320003@1)                  DAnd (xx0232@1)when I reached the top I banged the pulley with me head
       C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)                 D (xx0232@1)           CBut (x32010@1)I clung on tightly numb with shock from this almighty blow
            G (320003@1)               C (x32010@1)                     D (xx0232@1)            GWhile (320003@1)the barrel spilled out half it's bricks some fourteen floors below

G (320003@1)                                     D (xx0232@1)           GWhen (320003@1)these bricks had fallen from the barrel to the floor 
    C (x32010@1)                 G (320003@1)            D (xx0232@1)                  
I then outweighed the barrel and so started down once more
        C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1)         D (xx0232@1)              C (x32010@1)But I clung on tightly to the rope me body racked with pain 
      G (320003@1)          C (x32010@1)              D (xx0232@1)         GAnd (320003@1)halfway down I met the bloody barrel once again

G (320003@1)                                      D (xx0232@1)              GNow (320003@1)the force of this collision halfway down the office block
          C (x32010@1)       G (320003@1)              DCaused (xx0232@1)multiple abrasions and a nasty case of shock
        C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1)           D (xx0232@1)                CBut (x32010@1)I clung on tightly to the rope as I fell towards the ground
        G (320003@1)           C (x32010@1)               D (xx0232@1)                  GAnd (320003@1)I landed on the broken bricks the barrel had scattered round.

G (320003@1)                                         D (xx0232@1)             GNow (320003@1)as I lay there on the ground I thought I'd passed the worst
          C (x32010@1)            G (320003@1)                  DBut (xx0232@1)the barrel hit the pulley wheel and then the bottom burst
    C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)                D (xx0232@1)           CA (x32010@1)shower of bricks rained down on me I didn't have a hope
      G (320003@1)                C (x32010@1)                       D (xx0232@1)        GAs (320003@1)I lay there bleeding on the ground I let go of the bloody rope

G (320003@1)                                D (xx0232@1)             GThe (320003@1)barrel now being heavier so started down once more
     C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1)          DIt (xx0232@1)landed right across me as I lay there on the floor
    C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)             D (xx0232@1)            CIt (x32010@1)broke three ribs and my left arm and I can only say
   G (320003@1)             C (x32010@1)             D (xx0232@1)         GI (320003@1)hope you`ll understand why I am not at work today
