Tom: C
C G6 Am C7
Someday, my baby, when I am a man
F G
And others have taught me
C G
The best that they can
C G6
They'll sell me a suit
Am C/G
And cut off my hair
F G C G
And send me to work in tall buildings
[Chorus]
C G6
And it's goodbye to the sunshine
Am C7
Goodbye to the dew
F G
Goodbye to the flowers
C G
And goodbye to you
C G6
I'm off to the subway
Am C/G
I must not be late
F G C G
Going to work in tall buildings
[Verse 2]
C G6
Now when I retire
Am C7
And my life is my own
F G
I made all the payments
C G6
It's time to go home
C G6
And wonder what happened
Am C/G
Betwixt and between
F G C G
When I went to work in tall buildings
[Chorus]
C G6
And it's goodbye to the sunshine
Am C7
Goodbye to the dew
F G
Goodbye to the flowers
C G
And goodbye to you
C G6
I'm off to the subway
Am C/G
I must not be late
F G C G
Going to work in tall buildings
