D
He's drinking cold Corona
Bm
Feels like is getting older 
Em               A
Now and noticing how he's finding
D 
Grey hairs left in the shower 
Bm
Tattoos fade by the hour
Em                  A
And he can't understand these feelings

Pre-chorus

G                       A
Why life is getting him down 
	                D
He used to smile now he frowns 
    D/C#   Bm
And cries inside 
	Em
Its been this way for a while 
    E                           A
And he can't seem to put things right 

Chorus
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/mcfly/ballad_of_paul_k_crd.html ]
D             D7     G    G/F#     Em
When life has been unkind 
	     E         A        A/G
And you're losing your mind 
F#                    Bm     Bm/A        Em	   
Look in the mirror afraid of what you'll find 
              Gm	            D     A  D       A  D
It feels like time's not on your side 



Verse 2 (Same chords)

He doesn't like to mention 
Applying for his pension 
So his children don't know he's heading 
Into a mid-life crisis 
He cant afford the prices for 
The new kitchen floor he's buying 

Pre chorus 2

He's been a drunk all his life 
Two kids, a dog and a wife 
He doesn't know 
And in the daytime he just sits and watches television shows 

Chorus

Bridge

 C#m?              A
Dont know why but somehow 
	C#m?
The ones you love you hate now, 
        B         E
You feel down and blue 
        C#m
Look at what you've thrown away 
            B
They stood beside you all the way   

    e ---------------------|
    B ----2-3-5-----5-7-8--|
    G ---------------------|
    D ---------------------|
    A ---------------------|
    E ---------------------|

(there's probably an A7 chord in there somewhere - you need to experiment)
        
    A
Now its too late, its too late for you

Chorus

Enjoy! It really is a great song, let me know if the chords work, hope they did they
sound correct when I play them!
