Key: G
Introduction:
Em C D Am
What have you achieved now you're old
Em C D Am
Did you fulfill ambition, do as you were told
C Bm
Or are you still doing the same this year
C Am
Should I give sorrow, or turn 'round and sneer
Em C D Am
I know that the prospects weren't all that good
Em C D Am
But they improved, and I'd have thought that you could
C Bm
Have strived for that something we all have deep inside
C Am
Not let it vanish, along with your pride
Em C D Am
Now with the aid of your new walking stick
Em C D Am
You hobble along through society thick
C Bm
And look mesmerized by the face of it all
C Am
You keep to the gutter in case you fall
Em C
I can't go on
D Am
I can't go on
Em C
I can't go on
D Am
I can't go on
C Bm C Am
I, I, I, I...
