I met him in a crowded room
G D Em
Where people go to drink away their gloom
Am Em C
He sat me down and so began
G D G
The story of a charmless man
G D Em
Educated the expensive way
G D Em
He knows his claret from his beaujolais
Am Em C
I think he'd like to have been Ronnie Kray

Those family shares

And when you put it all together
C7 G
There's the model of a charmless man
Alala
He knows the swingers and their cavalry
Says he can get in anywhere for free
I began to go a little cross-eyed
And from this charmless man I just had to hide
Alala
He talks at speed
He gets nose bleeds
He doesn't see
His days are tumbling
Down upon him
And yet he tries so hard to please
He's just so keen
For you to listen
But no-one's listening
And when you put it all together
There's the model of a charmless man
Guitar break:

Am C D
G C G
He thinks his educated airs
Those family shares
Will protect him
That you'll respect him
And yet he tries so hard to please
He's just so keen
For you to listen
But no-one's listening
And when you put it all together
There's the model of a charmless man
