[ch]A[/ch] ([ch]E[/ch]) [ch]D[/ch] ([ch]A[/ch])
Did you see his name in the local paper
ch]E[/ch] ([ch]A[/ch]) [ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Stole a tin of beans from a cut-priced grocery store?
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
The judge said, "He must pay"
[ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]* [ch]E[/ch]*
So, he put him on probation and the paper gave his name
* * * * * *

Did you see his name in the criminal section
ch]E[/ch] ([ch]A[/ch]) [ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And the center page gave his name and his address
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
They stopped him doing it again
[ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]* [ch]E[/ch]*
So, they put him to dishonour and put the man to shame
* * * * * *

Letters edged in black
([ch]D[/ch]) [ch]E[/ch]
Life was much too hard to live
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
So, he brought it to an end
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
In his gas-filled maisonette
[ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]* [ch]E[/ch]*
Because he couldn't stand the strain
* * * * * *
