VERSE:
------
F7          Em7sus4 Em7  
There was the stage
F7              Em7sus4 Em7
Two red lights and a dodgy PA
F                             G       
You trod the planks way back then
F                            G       Am  G    F
And it's strange that you're here again, here again...


CHORUS:
-------
      C           G          Am
And I wish I wish I knew the right words
   C             G          Am             F
To make you feel better, walk out of this place
    C              G           Am    F
And defeat them in your secret battle
G             Am          Em      F7
Show them you can be your own man again


VERSE:
------
F7              Em7sus4 Em7
Don't - don't explain
F7                       Em7sus4      Em7
Lots of little victories take on the pain
Dm7                 G
It takes so long to learn 
Dm7                  G       Am    G       F
You can double up or you can burn, you can burn


CHORUS:
-------
      C           G          Am
And I wish I wish I knew the right words
   C             G            Am          F
To make you feel better, walk out of this place
    C              G           Am    F
And defeat them in your secret battle
G             Am          Emsus4   F7
Show them you can be your own man again


BREAK:
------
C      G      Am
C      G      Am      F
C      G      Am      F
G      Am     Emsus4  F


CHORUS:
-------
      C           G          Am
And I wish I wish I knew the right words
   C           G          Am         F
To blow up the pokies and drag them away
               C          G             Am    F
'Cause they're taking the food off your table
G            Am          Em7           F7
So they can say that the trains run on time


VERSE:
------
         F7                  Em7
Flashing lights - its a real show
         F7                   Em7
And your wife - I wouldn't go home
Dm7                Em7
Little bundles need care
F                    G      Am     G      F
And you can't be a father there, father there


CHORUS:
-------
      C           G          Am
And I wish I wish I knew the right words
   C             G          Am             F
To make you feel better, walk out of this place
    C              G           Am    F
And defeat them in your secret battle
G             Am          Em7   F7
Show them you can be your own man again
G             Am          Em7   F7
Show them you can be your own man again


CHORUS:
-------
      C           G          Am
And I wish I wish I knew the right words
   C           G          Am         F
To blow up the pokies and drag them away
               C          G             Am    F
'Cause they're taking the food off your table
G            Am          Em7           F7
So they can say that the trains run on time
G                 Am           Em            F7
Another man there was made the trains run on time...
