Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]He'[Em]s got[D] t[G]he[Em][D][G]
bon
[Em]homie [D]of [G]a game show hos[Em]t[D]
[G]And his handshake is so [Em]limp
it's like [D]meeting a [G]ghost[Em][D]
[G]His apolo[Am]gies are tired
'cause he uses [C]them a lot
His ex[Am]cuses are so lame if they
were [C]horses they'd be shot
He [G]lies through his teeth with im
[B]peccable grammar
In the [Em]game [Am]of life he's just a
[C]dreadful goalhanger

[Verse 2]
Keeping [G]all his option[Em]s op[D]en til[G]l
the very last [Em]minute[D]
[G]Checking every situ[Em]ation trying to
[D]work [G]out what's [Em]in it[D][G]
Trying [Am]to nail him down is like
nailing [C]water to a wall
He's [Am]in capable of making
a com[C]mitment at all
Like [G]trying to knock in a nail
with [B]an inflatable hammer
In the game [Am]of life he's just a
[C]dreadful [Am]goalh[D]anger

[Verse 3]
Yesterday [Em]upon the stair I [C]met
a man [G]who's [Am]never there
[D]He won't be there aga[Em]in today
Well, [C]that's what he [G]told
[Am]me to say

[Verse 4]
[A]
He's got [G]the natural [Em]arrogance
[D]of [G]an exclamation m[Em]ark[D]
[G]And he wishes his [Em]bite was a [D]big
as his [G]bark[Em][D][G]
He's ap[Am]pealing to the referee
at every [C]single stage
He's [Am]a fuzzy little bundle of [C]impotent rage
And when [G]he ought to have patience,
[B]he only has anger
In the game [Am]of life he's just
a [C]dreadful goalhanger

[Verse 5]
His [G]lack of [Em]humility [D]def[G]ies
imagin[Em]ation[D]
[G]And he hangs round like a [Em]fart in a
[D]Russian space [G]station[Em][D]
[G]He doesn't[Am] even notice as he sell
[C]s you down the river
'Cause he's [Am]one of life's takers and
he's [C]looking for a giver
[G]He smirks and shrugs his shoulders
[B]as he drops another clanger
In the game [Am]of life he's just
a dread[C]ful goalhanger
[G]
