Bill you were a friend of mine, a gentleman indeed 
G                 D              A 
On your two wheel steed, did you ever cry? 
        D                                G             D 
Did you laugh at our pettiness with your pump and tyre tight

You left us with a bump in the night

Bill was hard to undertstand, a language of his own

A man so much alone, no family 
D                          G                D 
He was onto something, his joy was plain to see 
  G                  A              G   D   G   A   G   D 
I wish he could have passed it onto me 



G                         Bm             A 
Bill had no funeral, he's just a ghost today 
    G            D 
His pump was his tombstone 
     G                 A        G   D   G   A   G   D 
They threw his buckled bicycle away 

    G                             Bm            A 
The little town closed ranks, the constable was wise 
    G                 D            G                D 
The driver drowns his sorrows when he turns out the light 
   G               A           G   D 
He still hears the bump in the night 

G                             Bm           A 
Drink another brandy boys and pour another beer 
      G            D 
After all he was a simpleton 
G      A      G      D 
Was he really here?

Keep his pump, that's ok

A vivid boyhood memory, I can't forget the day
