JAimmy was a loEcal boy, but he's sBmeen much more than a change in the weather

SAitting in a uEniform of the threeBm-piece suit and ribbons from his past

DAreaming of a Eday that he got homBme from a war to his childhood sweetheart

Now he don't need anyone, theres no-one there for him,

F*m E Bm

Just a feeling, of an empty place, deter eating

Verse

Jimmy's always been a local, but he's seen much more than i'm bound to ever

A member of a dying breed that sat and wait as it all just falls apart

Thinking of a day that's oh so long ago, he can't remember right

There was a time a man can still be a man and proud to use his heart

Now he don't need anyone, theres no-one there for him,

There was really only one,

IAt's sad, this tEown

SBmeems to fail to appreciate the man
