C#mThird-class tiGdimcket in his pocket
D#mPunching out the shadowAdims underneath the sockets
C#mTweed coat turned up againGst the fog C#m
Slow coaches rolling o'er the mDdimoor
F#mBetween the very memory and approaches of war G
Prehorus 1:
C#mStale bread curling on a F#mluncheon counter
C#mLoose change lonely, not the F#mright amount
C#mForgotten man of an indiffereF#mnt nation
C#mWaiting on a platform at a LancashireF#m station
C#mSomebody's callGdiming you again
D#mThe sky is fAdimalling
Jimmie's standC#ming in the rain F#m

C#mNobody waGdimnts to buy
D#ma counterfeited prairie lullabyAdim
C#m In aG collierC#my town
The hip flask and fumbled skDdimein
F#mOf some stage door Josephine is all he'll get now G
C#mEyes going inF#m and out of focus
C#mMild and bitter fromF#m tuberculosis
C#mForgotten man, indifF#mferent nation
C#mWaiting on a platform at a LancashirF#me station
C#mSomebody's callGdiming you again
D#mThe sky is fAdimalling
Jimmie's standC#ming in the rain F#m

EHer soft breath was gentle on his neck
If hC#me could cGhoose the time to die C#m
Then he wGould come and go like this
C#mUnderneath a painF#mted sky C#m
EShe woke up andG#7 calDled him "Charlie" bC#my mistake
And then in shame began to cry F#m C#m
ETarnished silver band peels off a phrase
G#7And Dthen warms their hands around the brazier
C#mForgotten man, indifF#mferent nation
C#mWaiting on a platform at a LancashirF#me station
C#mSomebody's callGdiming you again
D#mIt's finallyAdim dawning

C#mBrilliantine gGdimlistening
D#mYour soft plaintive whisAdimtling
C#mAnd your wan wandeGring smile C#m
Died down at The Hippodrome Ddim
F#mNow you're walking off to jeers,
the lonely soundE of jingling sFdimpurs,
The "toodle-oos" anF#md "Oh, my dears" down atB The Argyle G
C#mVile vaudevillians applaud sobriety F#m
C#mThere's no place for a half-cut cowboy in polite societyF#m
C#mForgotten man, indifF#mferent nation
