I met him outside a hostel door
Am7 G4 F7+ G4
He said I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours
Am7 G4 F7+ G4
I know you think it's shifty for a man in his fifties to be
Am7 G4 F7+
sleeping in a hostel dorm
Am7 G4 F7+ G4
But I used to be a welder by trade
Am7 G4 F7+ G4
Used to work by the water where the ships get made
Am7 G4
But no shipyard will take me now
F7+ G4
My hands are too shaky now
Am7 G4 F7+
I've spend all my money before I get paid
G4 C
And I said David, don't you think it's strange
F7+
While you were in your dark room
C
How the world went and changed
G4 Am7
Looking in your eyes, I think you know
F7+ G4 Am7
That David, we lost you, lost you a long time ago
Am7 G4 F7+ G4
Am7 G4 F7+
Ooh, ooh, oh, oh
Am7 G4 F7+
He leans his head against the hostel wall
G4 Am7 G4
Said I have an ex-wife that doesn't hear me
F7+ G4
And a kid that doesn't call
Am7 G4
And every month I'm caught short
F7+ G4
With my fucking child support
Am7 G4 F7+
And the court says that I'm reckless and irresponsible
Am7 G4
'Cause it was never part of the plan
F7+
To be a middle aged man
G4 Am7 G4 F7+ G4
To be sat outside a hostel, shaking strangers' hands
Am7 G4
But I've drunk away my wealth
F7+ G4
And I'm a picture of bad health
Am7 G4 F7+
And I'm a shadow of a shadow of a former self
G4 C
And I said David, don't you think it's strange
F7+
For years you were walking
C
And how the world went and changed
G4 Am7
I hear it in your voice, I think you know
F7+ G4 Am7
That David, we lost you, lost you a long time ago
Am7 G4 F7+ G4
Am7 G4 F7+
Ooh, ooh, oh, oh
G4 C
And I said David, don't you think it's strange
F7+
While you were sleeping
C
How the world went and changed
G4 Am7
Looking in your eyes, I think you know
F7+ G4
That David, we lost you, lost you a long time ago
