Capo 1 Key: Fm Intro: Em Em G D Em Em G D Em Two packs of cigarettes a day G The strongest whiskey D Kentucky can make Em G That's a recipe to put a vagabond D On his hands and knees Em I watched it all up close, G I knew him more than most D I saw a side of him he never showed Em G Full of sympathy for a world that D Wouldn't let him be Am That's the man he was, C B Have you heard enough? Em G D What a shame, what a shame, Em To judge a life that you can't change G D The choir sings, the church bells ring Em So, won't you give this man his wings? G D What a shame to have to beg you to C B See we're not all the same Em What a shame Em G D Em Em G D Em There's a hard life for every silver spoon G D There's a touch of grey for every shade of blue Em That's the way that I see life G If there was nothing wrong, D Then there'd be nothing right Em And for this working man they say could G Barely stand D Em There's gotta be a better place to land G Some kind of remedy for a world that D Wouldn't let him be Am That's the man he was, C B Have you heard enough? Em G D What a shame, what a shame, Em To judge a life that you can't change G D The choir sings, the church bells ring Em So, won't you give this man his wings?
