Verse 1
(C major) Narrow streets breed narrow minds and
(F major) Care for king but not (G major) for kind
It's a short (C major) hop to a long weekend
When (F major) every move you ap (G major) prehend
You'll (F major) never find room to find (G major) your feet
To (F major) walk out of this (G major) avenue
Your (C major) pockets are lined with promises
When did you promise (F major) ever pay (G major)
for shoes? (C major)

Verse 2
(C major) Counting coal trucks by the line and
(G major) (F major) Raise your glasses one (G major) more time
Cause (C major) Billy has gone off to war
And (G major) (F major) God knows what he's fight (G major) ing for
But (F major) wartime will make (G major) him a man
(F major) Work that no one (G major) see, if you can
A (C major) hero's grave is six feet deep not (G major)
(F major) Room enough for (G major) all (C major) his plans.

(B flat major) She can scrub the step
but if he'll never gleam (F major)
If he did she'd smash the dream (B flat major)

up (C major) from
(F major) (G major) (C major)

Father was a fighter too (G major)
(A minor) The (F major) only way to jump (G major) the queue (C major)
Boxing clever, times were tough

You'd (F major) never find room to find (G major) his feet
To (F major) walk out of these (G major) avenues
Their (C major) pockets are lined with promises
(G major) When did they promise (F major) ever
pay (G major) for shoes? (C major)
When did they (F major) promise ever (G major) (C major) pay for shoes?
