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...
