A A7 A A7

[verse]:

          D
Well, I'd say I'm in a pickle,
     G
me cashflow doesn't trickle,
         D                            A
there's nothing in my pocket except lint.
            D
There's no bread for me butter,
    G
me best friend is the gutter.
      D                A                  D
Do ye get the bloody pictures boys, I'm skint!

[chorus]:

     A
I'm short a couple'a bob,
          D
since I started on the grog,
D                          A
I've seen better days for sure.
     G
I'm short a couple'a bob,
    D
me head it's all a throb,
D          A               D
I've seen better days for sure.

[verse]:

            D
I spend me mornin' clippin' coupons,
 G
since I got me scoop on,
      D                                A
the churchmouse is a rich man and I'm not.
       D
But I ain't a down-and-out, see,
     G
the train just left without me.
D               A           D
I don't own a smidgen or a jot!

[chorus]:

     A
I'm short a couple'a bob,
 D
since I lost me job.
D                          A
I've seen better days for sure,
      G
I'm short a couple'a bob,
              D
and I've run out of stuff to flog,
D           A              D
I've seen better days for sure.

here we go!

[verse]:

          D
Well, the pot that I would p**s in,
         G
It's temporarily missin',
           D               A
I'm not a pauper I'm just poor.
         D
And I'm really not that miserable,
           G
though me lack of funds is considerable,
    D                 A              D
The wolf is selling crackers at the door.

[chorus]:

      A
I'm short a couple'a bob,
           D
I eat my chips without the cod,
D                          A
I've seen better days for sure.
      G
I'm short a couple'a bob,
            D
there's no corn on me cob.
D          A               D
I've seen better days for sure.

[verse]:

            D
Well, that silver spoon of mine,
      G
got stuck where the sun don't shine.
     D                             A
My fortune went away and doesn't call.
             D
I've really fallen on hard times,
          G
and I've just run out of rhymes,
        D             A             D
so I better finish quickly while I can...
  D         
still...finish.

[chorus]:

  A                           D
short a couple'a bob, there's no bricks in me hod,
D                          A
I've seen better days for sure.
      G
I'm short a couple'a bob,
             D
I'm not the man you want to rob.
D           A              D
I've seen better days for sure.
D           A              D
I've seen better days for sure.
D           A              D
I've seen better days for sure.
