G# Fm C# D# G#
War made him a soldier, little Franky Mear
G# Fm C# D# G#
Peace left him a loser, the little bombradier.
Fm C# D# G#
Lines of worry appeared with age, unskilled hands that knew no trade
Cm C#m C# D# G# C# C#m G#
Spent his time in a picture(?) house, the little bombradier.

G# Fm C# D# G#
Franky drank his money, the little that he made
G# Fm C# D# G#
Told his woes to no man, friendless lonely days.
Fm C# D# G#
Then one day in the ABC, four small eyes gazed longingly
Cm C#m C# D# G#
At the ice cream in the hand of the little bombradier.

D#m A# D#m A#

D#m A#
Sunshine entered our Frankyʼs days
D#m A#
Gone his sorrows his hopeless maze
B D# A#
His life was fun and his heart was full of joy
D#m A#
Two young children had changed his his aims,
D#m A#
He bought the toffees and played their games
B D# A#
He bought them presents with every coin he made.

G# Fm C# D# G# G# Fm C# D# G# Fm C# D# G# Cm C#m C# D# G#

G# Fm C# D# G#
Then two gentlemen called on him, asked him for his name
G# Fm C# D# G#
Why was he friends with the children, were they just a game
Fm C# D# G#
Leave them alone or weʼll get sore, weʼve had blokes like you in this nation
before
Cm C#m C# D# G#
The hand of authority said "no more" to the little bombradier.
Fm C# D# G#
Packed his bags, his heart in pain, wiped a tear and caught a train
Cm C#m C# D# G#
Not to be seen in this town again, the little bombradier.
