VERSE 1
********

He was first one out of the landing craft
G Am
When the ramp hit the churning sand

He was first one out of the red-cross train
G
To the sound of the big brass band
C G
He was first in line for his demob suit
Am Em
When the war he'd fought was won
Am
Then he settled down, rebuilt his town
G Am
Thought his job was done

-------------------
CHORUS
*******
G Am
Fifty years on, fifty years on
G
He's grown too old, his house is sold
C E
And all his money's gone
Am G
Like him, it's thrown to the nursing home
Am
Fifty years on
