Boxing Champ

C              Dm                
  We went to the youth club and 
Em              Dm
we looked out of place.
C                  Dm
  I didn't know where to look
       Em             Dm
So I, looked at your face.
C              Dm             Em
 But you were a boxing champ, 
              Dm
and I was a weakling.
C                 Dm
  You didn't give me a chance,
Continues after the ad
Em             Dm
You gave me a beating.
F                                
And I thank you very much that you 
G
did.
C              Dm              
  And as the time went by we 
Em              Dm
stayed out of trouble,
C               Dm        Em    
  Before I could realise my age 
          Dm
had doubled.
Am                     G
The man I became is a tragic bore,
F                          Em
And he's not a boxing champ anymore.
Am                               
If there's one thing i've learnt 
G
it's to run away,
F                          Em
At least I enjoy what I do today.
F                              G
And I thank you very much that I do.
