Verse 

 A(5th fret)  E                  Bm           
Jimmy was a local boy, but he's seen much more than a change in the weather
 A            E                  Bm
Sitting in a uniform of the three-piece suit and ribbons from his past
 A            E                  Bm
Looking for alittle boy at the bar with the mouth who thinks he's clever now
 A            E                  Bm
Dreaming of a day that he got home from a war to his childhood sweetheart




Pre-chorus

F*m     E         Bm            
Now he don't need anyone, theres no-one there for him,
F*m     E         Bm
Just a feeling, of an empty place, deter eating



Verse

Jimmy's always been a local, but he's seen much more than i'm bound to ever
A member of a dying breed that sat and wait as it all just falls apart
Thinking of a day that's oh so long ago, he can't remember right
There was a time a man can still be a man and proud to use his heart

Pre-chorus

Now he don't need anyone, theres no-one there for him,
There was really only one,

Chorus

A(12th fret)                     E
Now he misses how she sounds,he frowns,
 Bm
He lines them up and he puts them down
 A              E
It's sad, this town
 Bm
Seems to fail to appreciate the man



(Guitar solo)
A                E             Bm  x2



Pre chorus (one strum only)

Now he don't need anyone, theres no-one there for him,
No he don't feel any more, coz jimmy's so thicked skinned
 F*m       E            Bm
And a long, long time ago, when he could break her heart
 F*m        E            Bm
There was really only one,



Chorus

A(12th fret)                     E
