Intro: [G] [G7] [Csus2] [Dadd4] x 3


[G] Ever see a [G7] blind man cross the [Csus2] road
[Dadd4] Trying to make the other [G] side [G7] [Csus2] [Dadd4]
[G] Ever see a [G7] young girl growing [Csus2] old
[Dadd4] Trying to make herself a [G] bride [G7] [Csus2] [Dadd4]


[Em] So what becomes of [D] you my love
[G] When they have finally [A] stripped you of
The [C5] handbags and the gladrags
That your [D7sus4] Grandad had to [D7] sweat so you could [G] buy
[G7] [Csus2] [Dadd4] [G] [G7] [Csus2] [Dadd4]


[G] Once I was a [G7] young man
[Csus2] And all I thought I [Dadd4] had to do was [G] smile [G7] [Csus2] [Dadd4]
[G] You are still a [G7] young girl, and you
[Csus2] bought every[Dadd4]thing in [G] style [G7] [Csus2] [Dadd4]


[Em] But once you think you're [D] in you're out
'[G] Cos you don't mean a [A] single thing without
The [C5] handbags and the gladrags
That your [D7sus4] Grandad had to [D7] sweat so you could [G] buy
[G7] [Csus2] [Dadd4] [G] [Dadd4] [G] [Dadd4].....


[G] Sing a song of [G7] sixpence for your [Csus2] sake
[Dadd4] And take a bottle full of [G] rye [G7] [Csus2] [Dadd4]
[G] Four and twenty [G7] blackbirds in a [Csus2] cake
And [Dadd4] bake them all in a [G] pie [G7] [Csus2] [Dadd4]


[Em] They told me you missed [D] school today
[G] So what I suggest you just [A] throw them all away
The [C5] handbags and the gladrags
That your [D7sus4] poor old Grandad [D7] had to sweat to [G] buy you
