Verse
D Em
It started as a bet
F#m
The story of a life
G
Part engineered to fit the scenery
D Em
He'd loved a racist once
F#m
She kept a tidy house
G D
It must have paid much better in the seventies
Em
Back then you could be gay
F#m
But in a manly way
G
He held no truck with water pistols
D Em
Alternative lifestyles
F#m
Were for the middle class
G G
At worst they could write poems about their misadventures
G D
No real man could envy them that
D
[chorus]
Em G
Softly - suddenly
[verse 2]
D Em
She'd started as an eight
F#m
Then sunk into a ten
G
He put it down to carbon dating
D Em
Their daughter had his laugh
F#m
But not his smoker's cough
G D
It must have been the lack of tar in heroin
Em
She took herself to Wales
F#m
Excelled in telesales
G
Cold-calling deep into the evening
D Em
Her second husband came
F#m
And left before the spring
G G
It must have been the season for unhappy drunks
G D
Her father had a similar trigger
D
[chorus]
Em G
Softly - suddenly
[bridge]
D
I gratefully accept this black eye
D
No one knows as well as me
Em G
The value of consequences
D
Do to others as you would have
D Em
Done to you especially if in doing so
G
You find new takers
