[ Предположительная тональность: G ] Fate of Man Glen Campbell written by Glen Travis Campbell album Wichita Lineman Chorus 1 ( Sung ) C G Am D7 Pity a man, for he don't know, the trouble he'll pass G going down life's road Verse 1 ( Recitative ) G C When a man is one and twenty, he thinks he knows it all; D7 G He can't see down the road of life where he'll ever fall. C Am But fall he will, as he travels through life. With all it's D7 pitfalls, troubles and strife. G C D7 Now, at fifty, he's going real strong. He has him a family G C and a nice little home; But old age is creepin' up his spine, D G and the day is comin' when the sun won't shine. G C D7 Now, at sixty, he won't have to guess; He's already missed G the boat that leads to success; But he's done his best C Am D7 and he can't see why, the fame of life just passed him by. G C D7 G Now at seventy, he can see the light and he knows he's never been very bright. But he's done his best as he's traveled by C D G and now, all he can do is to sit and sigh. Chorus 2 ( sung ) C G Am D7 Pity a man, for he don't know, the trouble he'll pass G going down life's road. Verse 2 ( Recitative ) G C D7 Now at eighty, he's ready for the reath. He's wore out his hair G C and two sets of teeth; He has rheumatism in his hands and feet, Am D7 G and nothin' seems good to eat. So you can pity him as he goes C D7 G up the line. As he wobbles on the spindle and he's almost blind. C And you can tell by the way that he travels alone, that it won't be D G long before he's goin' home. But if he's kept the commandments C D7 as he's traveled through life, he'll have a home in Heaven G where there'll be no strife. He's worked all his life to get C Am things the way he wants them; He comes here against his will D7 G and he goes away disappointed. flyinglibra51 God Bless Glen Travis Campbell
