CAPO 2
A E C
Ever see a blind man cross the road
D A
Trying to make the other side
A E D
Ever see a young girl growing old
D A
Trying to make herself a bride
F#m E
So what becomes of you my love
A B
When they have finally stripped you of
D
The handbags and the gladrags
D Bm E A
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you
A E
Once I was a young man
D A
And all I thought I had to do was smile
A E
Well you are still a young girl
D A
And you bought everything in style
F#m E
So once you think you’re in you’re out
A B
’Cos you don’t mean a single thing without
D
The handbags and the gladrags
Bm E A
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you
A E D
Sing a song of six-pence for your sake
D A
And take a bottle full of rye
A E D
Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake
D A
And bake them all in a pie
F#m E
They told me you missed school today
A B
So what I suggest you just throw them all away
D
The handbags and the gladrags
Bm E A
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you
Oh oh
F#m E
They told me you missed school today
A B
So what I suggest you just throw them all away
D
The handbags and the gladrags
Bm E A
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you
