Am 
Two men on the street drinking something cheap 
G 
No home, no family It's cold, nowhere to sleep 
Am                               G 
Passers-by never catch their eye anywhere 
 
One man drinks, the other swears 
 
Am 
You know where you went wrong 
Am                             G  
You know where you went wrong, you know

The old man can't understand 
No one will shake his hand 
'I gave security, bombs and colour TV 
It cost a few lives - someone's son always dies' 
No one shakes his hand/ He don't understand 
 
You know where you went wrong 
You know where you went wrong, you know 
You know where you went wrong 
You know where you went wrong, you know

Two girls with a photograph 
One looks, the other laughs 
'He could have been mine 
Why did I change my mind?' 
Then hands on hips 
the other girl says 'Admit, admit'
