the funny think is, this song is about drug addiction, gambling and so on. so why is it most people would drink to this song. and by the way im drinking to this song... lol
@acegikmoqsuwy999 I play it on guitar with chords C D Em with a few G thrown in during the "you cant afford it now" part. You can easily change the key to whatever you like for piano.
I grew up on the Whitlams, so as a child I didn't understand this song although always knew it was a tragic story. But the day that I knew what it all meant I burst into tears.
After all these years, the Whitlams never fail to keep the emotion flowing with every song, no matter how many times I've listened to them. Never fail to bring to the table, so to speak.
I'm hearing you, I listened as a teenager. Amazing what a decade can do to help you understand what this is all about. So sad, so true and so heartbreaking :(
top song about the evils of drug addiction, and how the people who care the most are the ones who get ditched first in the mind of a user. im in a puddle ov tears evry time i hear it.
I saw them live last night, you know that it is an awesome concert when the band members are grinning ear to ear and having fun while the crowd sings along
Tim Freedman is genius.
Anyone find the piano sheet music yet??
Hard to get hold of...

This is not a song about drugs. I thought it was being myself a phenomenal drug fiend. I'll bet cash it wasn't written about a cokehead.
