[Verse 1]
D# D#/D C
I met him in a crowded room
D# D#/D C
Where people go to drink away their gloom
Fm7 Gm7 G# D# G# D#
He sat me down and so began, the story of a charmless man
D# D#/D C D# D#/D C
Educated the expensive way, he knows his claret from his beaujolais
Fm7 Gm7 G# A#
I think he's like to have been Ronnie Kray
D# G# D#
But then nature didn't make him that way
D# D#/D C
Na na na na na na na
D# D#/D C
Na na na na na na na
[Chorus]
D#
He thinks he's educated, airs those family shares
Gm7 Fm7 Gm7 Fm7
Will protect him that we will respect him
D#
He moves in circles of friends
Gm7 Fm7
Who just pretend that they like him
Gm7 Fm7 A#sus4
He does the same to them, And when you put it all together
G#9 D#
There's the model of a charmless man

[Verse 2]
D# D#/D C
He knows the swingers and their calvarly
D# D#/D C
Says he can get in anywhere for free
Fm7 Gm7 G# A#
I began to go a little cross eyed
D# G# D#
And from this charmless man I just had to hide
[Chorus]
D#
He talks at speeds he gets nosebleeds
Gm7
He doesn't see his days
Fm7 Gm7 Fm7
Are tumbling down upon him
D#
And yet he tries so hard to please
Gm7 Fm7
He's just so keen for you to listen
Gm7 Fm7
But no one is listening
A#sus4
And when you put it all together
G#9 D#
There's the model of a charmless man
