[Verse 1]
E       A       E           D     A
Did you see his name in the local paper
        E      A     D                 E
Stole a tin of beans from a cut-priced grocery store?
    D                    A
The judge said, "He must pay"
       D              A             D              E* E* E*
So, he put him on probation and the paper gave his name
 
E7* E7* E7*    E/C#* E/C#* E/C#*    E/B* E/B* E/B*
 
[Verse 2]
        A       E           D        A
Did you see his name in the criminal section
        E      A    D                 E
And the center page gave his name and his address
                 D         A
They stopped him doing it again
         D              A         D              E* E* E*
So, they put him to dishonour and put the man to shame
 
E7* E7* E7*    E/C#* E/C#* E/C#*    E/B* E/B* E/B*
 
[Chorus]
G
 He lost his little job
E                   Bm              (B5)
 His employer was absolved of blame
G                          E
His world just crumbled down
 
[Verse 3]
E                    A       E              D        A
 Incidently, did you see his name in the obiturary column
        E          A
Letters edged in black
D                 E
Life was much too hard to live
       D                A
So, he brought it to an end
       D               A
In his gas-filled maisonette
           D                   E* E* E*
Because he couldn't stand the strain
 
E7* E7* E7*    E/C#* E/C#* E/C#*    E/B* E/B* E/B*
 
[Instrumental]
      A     E            D     A             A     E
La la la la la,    La la la la la la,  La la la la la,
 
[Outro]
D                 E
Life was much too hard to live
       D                A
So, he brought it to an end
       D               A
In his gas-filled maisonette
           D                   E* E* E*
Because he couldn't stand the strain
 
E7* E7* E7*    E/C#* E/C#* E/C#*    E/B* E/B* E/B*
 
        A       E
Did you see his name?
        A       E
Did you see his name?
        A       E
Did you see his name?
