[Verse]
G                     D
I loved your home at Springfield
          C            Em
And your chauffer-drive Jag
         C                G
But the afternoons at the yacht 
squadron
C             D
Really are a drag
      C               D
Your country home at Aldgate
       G              Em
Your horses and your friends
     C        D             G    
The alcoholic sunsets, the 
          Em
pleasure never ends
      C             D           G
I've just begun to notice the 
                       Em
cold steel in your eyes

[Chorus]
C     D             Em
So I say to you goodbye
C      D               Em
As she goes on asking why

[Verse]
      G              D
I've spoken to your father
        C          Em
he's a self made millionaire
    C                  G
Do you know where his factories are?
    C                  D
Do you know who lives there?
     C             D              
In squashy little red-brick houses
  G             Em
 far away from here.
         C                D    
They're ugly and they're all the 
            G                 Em
same, the neighbours live so near

     C                D        
The way my famliy's living there 
         G                 Em
you'd not believe your eyes

[Chorus]
C     D             Em
So I say to you goodbye
C      D               Em
As she goes on asking why

[Verse]
      G                  D
Your brother's learning how to drive
     C               Em
the jag in your back yard
       C              G
Your father sits and tells me
       C                  D
about how he's worked so hard
      C             D             
Your mother's introducing me with 
  G           Em
patronising grace
   C                       D   
To all her bridge friends in the 
          G               Em
salon, little cakes and lace
   C                D             
My mothers working nightshift now,
       G                Em
 she's working till she dies

[Chorus]
C     D             Em
So I say to you goodbye
C      D               Em
As she goes on asking why

[Verse]
      G                 D
Your fathers firm owns factories
     C                 Em
not far from where we stay
     C                G
The chimneys spewing thick black 
smoke
  C                   D
Across the night and day
     C               D            
The people live and work down 
        G                  Em
there underneath that cloud of smog
     C                   D        
The kids' backyards are small and 
           G              Em
bare, too small to keep a dog
      C                 D    
Dont tell me that they like it 
                G          Em
there, thats certainly a lie

[Chorus]
C     D             Em
So I say to you goodbye
C      D               Em
As she goes on asking why

[Verse]
G                         D
Please don't cry, you'll find a 
lover
C             Em
very soon I'm sure
   C                G
A gentleman who'll bring you roses
     C                D
and lay them at your door
     C                   D  
It's not because you're rich, 
                  G                
because you're not prepared to 
 Em
think
     C            D          G   
The higher daddy rises, the more 
     Em
his workers sink
      C                D           
You won't wake up in time my lady, 
G          Em
you won't realise

[Chorus]
C     D             Em
So I say to you goodbye
C      D               Em
As she goes on asking why
