1.    Ever seen a blind man cross the road
      D                        G      - F - C - D
    Trying to reach the other side ?
G                F                 C
    Ever seen a young girl growing old
      D                        G      - F - C - D
    Trying to make herself a bride ?
Em                      D
   So what becomes of you my love
G                             A
    When they have finally stripped you of
         C
    The handbags and the gladrags
               D                                G     - F - C - D
    That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you

2.   Once I was a young man
  C                      D              G    - F - C - D
    And all I thought I had to do was smile
G                    F
    You are still a young girl
C                  D               G    - F - C - D
    And you bought everything in style
Em                             D
    But once you think you're in, you're out
G                             A
    'Cause that don't mean a single thing without
            C
    The handbags and the gladrags
               D                                G   - F - C - D

3.    Sing a song of six-pence for your sake
                D              G   - F - C - D
    And take a bottle full of rye
G                     F              C
    Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake
         D                  G   - F - C - D
    And bake them all in a pie
Em                              D
   They told me you missed school today
G                                 A
    So what I suggest you just throw them all away
         C
    The handbags and the gladrags
               D                                 G    - F - C - D

    So what I suggest you just throw them all away
