Genre: punk, rock, indie

G
Now that she's older
D Em
As the embers of romance fade to mortgages and leccy bills
D
Been comfortable and that
G D
Nobody told her that she'd ever reach the stage
Em D
Where her husband bores or her or she lies about her age
G
He's compromising
D
At least he's got a job for life
Em
Get born, get school, get job, get car
D
Pay tax and find a wife
G D
And on that note the end can't come too soon
Em D
If you're not living on the edge you take up too much room
C
I could've been a contender
Em
I could've been a someone
C
Caught up in the rat race
G
And feeling like a no one
C
Could've been me in the papers
Em
With the money and the girls
C A
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
G D
At school he used to dream about being Bruce Lee
Em
But the need for chops in the Manor Top
D
Ain't all that great you see
G
And so he gave up
D
On his black belt and first Dan
Em
As near as he got to China
D
Was a week in Camber sands
C
I could've been a contender
Em
I could've been a someone
C
Caught up in the rat race
G
And feeling like a no one
C
Could've been me in the papers
Em
With the money and the girls
C A
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
C
I could've been a contender
