(G major) Standing at the bus (A minor7) stop
with my (G/B) shopping in my (C major) hands

Hear them in the (G major) school yard,
in the (A minor7) scrap yard
In the (G/B) chip shop, in the (C major) phone box
In the (G major) pool hall, at the (A minor7) shoe store

Verse 2
It started with a (G major) school girl who was (A minor7) running
Running (G/B) home to her mam and (C major) dad
Told them she was (G major) playing
in the (A minor7) change room
of her (G/B) local football (C major) side
They said "tell us again" (G major)
so she told them again (A minor7)
They said "tell us the truth (G/B)
I find it hard to believe (C major)
'cause he taught our (G major) Steve
he even trained (A minor7) me
taught uncle (G/B) john who's a father of (C major) three"

You see it in the (G major) class room
In the (A minor7) swimming pool
Where the (G/B) matchstick men are (C major) made
At the (G major) scouts hall, at the (A minor7) football
Where the (G/B) wise we trust are (C major) paid
They all honour his name (G major)
He did a lot for the game (A minor7)
Got his (G/B) name knocked up
above the (C major) sports ground gates
Now they are (G major) ripping them down
(A minor7) stamping the ground
(G/B) Picture gathers dust in the (C major) bar
