Verse 2
Keeping (G major) all his option (E minor) s open (D major) (G major) till
the very last (E minor) minute (D major) (G major)
Checking every situation (E minor) trying to
(D major) work out what's (G major) in it (E minor) (D major) (G major)
Trying (A minor) to nail him down is like
nailing (C major) wa ter to a wall
He's in (A minor) capable of making
a commit (C major) ment at all
Like trying to (G major) knock in a nail with
an (B major) inflatable hammer
In the (C major) game of (A minor) life he's just
a dreadful (C major) (D major) goalhanger

Yesterday upon (E minor) the stair I (C major) met
a man (G major) who's (A minor) never there
He (D major) won't be there again (E minor) today
Well, (C major) that's what he (B minor) told me (A minor) to say

(D major) (G major) of an exclamation (E minor) mark (D major)

a (D major) big as his (G major) bark (E minor) (D major)
(G major) He's appeal (A minor) ing to the referee
at every (C major) single stage
He's a (A minor) fuzzy little bundle
of im (C major) potent rage
And when he (G major) ought to have patience,
he only (B major) has anger
In the game (C major) of (A minor) life he's just
a dreadful (C major) goalhanger
Verse 5
His lack (G major) of humil (E minor) ity (D major) (G major)
defies imagin (E minor) ation (D major)
(G major) And he hangs round like a fart (E minor) in
a Rus (D major) sian space station (G major) (E minor) (D major) (G major)
He (A minor) doesn't even notice as he
sell (C major) s you down the river
Cos he's (A minor) one of life's takers and
he's (C major) looking for a giver
He smirk (G major) s and shrugs his shoulders
as he drops (B major) another clanger
In the (C major) game of (A minor) life he's just
a dread (C major) ful goalhanger
