[Intro]
C
[Verse]
A pushbike with a sugar bag, tied to its handlebars,
was leaning against the pub they called "the star".
Inside I saw its owner, a tall and thin old man
G C
sitting on a stool beside the bar.
[Verse]
I dunno why I ask him, if he'd join me in a beer,
but he looked at me and a smile lit up his face,
"Oh, I'd only have the two he said, or I have to ride my bike,
but on this occasion three's not out of place".
[Verse]
He said "I've been here thinkin' just how much we learn in life,
we have to learn to crawl before we walk.
we start our learning on the very day that we are born,
before too long we have to learn to talk.
[Verse]
and later on, we go to school, we learn to read and write,
and also have to learn the rule of three.
Then comes the time, we go to work, we have to learn our job,
and on this depends what our future life will be.
[Verse]
Then later on we have to learn if what the good book says is true
when we reach our span of three score years and ten
its then we learn the one last thing that there is left to learn
if there’s another life than this weary world of men
[Verse]
he said goodbye and thank you for the drink and for the talk
I watched him mount his bike and ride away
I made myself a promise, I'd be here next week
to listen to the things that he might say
[Instrumental]
C E F C
G C
[Verse]
Then came the day that I went there to the Tampo star hotel
but his pushbike wasn't leaning by the wall
another man was sitting on the stool where he had sat
and I felt my happy spirits kind of fall
[Verse]
I asked the man behind the bar if the old chap had been in
and was saddened by the words he had to say
no, he said he's not been in, and he’ll never be again,
our old mates gone, he was buried yesterday
[Verse]
C E F C
I took my glass in silence, and looked out along the road
D7 G
Oh, I knew he’d learn the one last thing, he said was left to learn
The secret of that other life he knows today.
