Description
I wrote and upped this to Macjams years ago when I first got Garageband. I thought it needed a spit and polish so I've redone the arrangement - it now sounds a bit more like I first envisioned. Hope you like it.

Lyrics
There was a man who was unable
To walk without a cane
All his cards were on the table
Never tried to hide his pain
His life had been hard, so very hard
He'd never got it right
But he'd tried, oh God he'd try
Morning, noon and night
Now the sun was going down
On his empty life
But he's still one more hand to play
Now he's going to make then pay
He took the steps to his basement
Blew the dust off an old black case
Saw a photograph of his dead wife
Turned it round, to hide her face
Took the gun from the black box
Said a prayer, and went outside
Threw his cane in the gutter
He'd go with an ounce of pride
His life had been hard, so very hard
He'd never got it right
But he'd tried, oh God he'd try
Morning noon and night
Now the sun was going down
On his empty life
But he's still one hand left to play,
Now he's going to make them pay
CODA:
Bang Bang
Watch them people fall
Bang Bang
Standin' ten feet tall
repeat
To walk without a cane
All his cards were on the table
Never tried to hide his pain
His life had been hard, so very hard
He'd never got it right
But he'd tried, oh God he'd try
Morning, noon and night
Now the sun was going down
On his empty life
But he's still one more hand to play
Now he's going to make then pay
He took the steps to his basement
Blew the dust off an old black case
Saw a photograph of his dead wife
Turned it round, to hide her face
Took the gun from the black box
Said a prayer, and went outside
Threw his cane in the gutter
He'd go with an ounce of pride
His life had been hard, so very hard
He'd never got it right
But he'd tried, oh God he'd try
Morning noon and night
Now the sun was going down
On his empty life
But he's still one hand left to play,
Now he's going to make them pay
CODA:
Bang Bang
Watch them people fall
Bang Bang
Standin' ten feet tall
repeat
