Dear sir, in answer to your letter
                   C
Our position is no better
                  G
We have but one machine
    C                          F
And though you're in a weak condition
                     C
We can't alter our position
   G              C
We have but one machine

       F
You'll understand how hard we try
       G                         C
Though charities help us to buy
                  F
We have but one machine
But as your situation’s grave
   G                               C
Perhaps you have some money saved
                  G
To buy your own machine?

    C                 F
Our panel gave consideration
                    C
To your urgent application
                 G
For use of our machine
    C                      F
But we'd just had a motion carried
                   C
Any person still unmarried
G               C
Can't use our machine

You'll understand how hard we try
       G                         C
Though charities help us to buy
                  F
We have but one machine
But as your situation’s grave
   G                               C
Perhaps you have some money saved
                  G
To buy your own machine?

   C
As there are hundreds more like you
     F                            C
It's very hard to choose the few
                 G
To use our one machine
      C
We're hoping soon for further gains
    F                              C
But at this time the fact remains
   G              C
We have but one machine
