[Intro]
F  C  F  C  F  Am  G
 
[Verse 1]
C                    G                 F                       C
In the boardroom the quiet man takes a second to think what to do
     F                        C                        G
He's out of his seat and he's starting to speak and he hears his own voice
C                             G                         F                       C
For years and years he's done nothing but bow down, and put up with all their demands
    F                     C                         G
She sits like a viper and offers the clock, without giving a damn... he takes it
Am                      G                          F                            C
"Honour forbids me, but honour be damned, you have whined till you got what you want
F                       C                         G
I did the work and when things would go badly you left us to rot"
 
[Interlude]
F  C  F  C  F  Am  G
 
[Verse 2]
C                         G                              F                          C
He locked the door of the boardroom and turned, like the scene from the old country song
F                 C                      G
Towering over the table he's lost, he is drunk with it all
          Am                        G                           F                          C
"You only came back to us when we'd turned it around, when we'd rescued your arse from the fire
F                    C                      G
Your contribution to all that we did was to say it was dire"
 
[Interlude]
F  C  Dm  C  F  C  G
F  C  Dm  C  F  Am  G
 
[Verse 3]
Am                     G                           F                      C
"Night after day after night I've been working, despite of you fucking us all
    F                         C                            G
Now I'm going to die, I don't care if you cry, just please leave me alone... and spare those
Am                            G                                  F                              C
Tears for yourself, we've had those 'till we're sick, you should leave while you still have the chance"
    F                           C                        F                    C
The others were shocked at this shameful disgrace at the end of an honoured career
   F                        C                       G
He paused in the silence to pull down his tie and observe the melee
