  Just crowding round the door
Fm7                          Bbm7
  But when it's gone,and the spending ends
             Cm7        Bm7 Bbm7            Bbm7
  They don't come round no  more

          Fm7          Bbm7
  Rich relations bring you
            Fm7       Bbm7
  Crusts of bread and such
          Ab        Bbm7
  You can help yourself
            Ab       Bbm7
  But don't take too much

  But God bless the child
                  Ab Eb Eb7   Ab Eb Eb7   Ab
  That's got his own
