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