[Verse 1]
E E/D# C#
I met him in a crowded room
E E/D# C#
Where people go to drink away their gloom
F#m7 G#m7 A E A E
He sat me down and so began, the story of a charmless man
E E/D# C# E E/D# C#
Educated the expensive way, he knows his claret from his beaujolais
F#m7 G#m7 A B
I think he's like to have been Ronnie Kray
E A E
But then nature didn't make him that way
E E/D# C#
Na na na na na na na
E E/D# C#
Na na na na na na na
[Chorus]
E
He thinks he's educated, airs those family shares
G#m7 F#m7 G#m7 F#m7
Will protect him that we will respect him
E
He moves in circles of friends
G#m7 F#m7
Who just pretend that they like him
G#m7 F#m7 Bsus4
He does the same to them, And when you put it all together
A9 E
There's the model of a charmless man

[Verse 2]
E E/D# C#
He knows the swingers and their calvarly
E E/D# C#
Says he can get in anywhere for free
F#m7 G#m7 A B
I began to go a little cross eyed
E A E
And from this charmless man I just had to hide
[Chorus]
E
He talks at speeds he gets nosebleeds
G#m7
He doesn't see his days
F#m7 G#m7 F#m7
Are tumbling down upon him
E
And yet he tries so hard to please
G#m7 F#m7
He's just so keen for you to listen
G#m7 F#m7
But no one is listening
Bsus4
And when you put it all together
A9 E
There's the model of a charmless man
