[G] One of them's off her [C] food and the other [G] one's off his head
[Em] And both of them are [G] off down [D] the boozer
To [C] [G] drink a toast [C] to the [G] one that he hates most
And [Em] she says, there [G] are no winners, [D] only [G] losers
Well, if there [Bm] are no winners, [C] then what is [G] this?
He thinks [E] as he watches [G] her complete [D] the lap of honour
[C]
And [G] he sits in the stands with [C] his head [G] in his hands
[Em] And he thinks [G] of all the things [D] he'd like to [G] bring down upon her
And revenge [Bm] will bring cold [C] comfort in his [G] darky stare
As the [C] jukebox says it's [D] all [G] over now
[Em] And he stands and he [G] screams, what [C] a
[G] I've done all [D] I've [Em] thought of in life
[C] With a little [G] time bomb [D] I've [Em] fought all my [G] life
[C] With a [G] little time bomb
In [C] [G] public he's [Am] such [G] a man
He's [C] [G] punching at the walls [A] with his [G] bare and bloody hands
He's [C] [G] screaming and shouting and [A] [G] acting crazy
But [C] at home he sits alone and he [D] cries like a baby
Oh, [G] he [Bm] holds your [G] letters but he can't read them
As he fights [C] his loneliness that [D] you [G] call [Em] freedom
He said [G] this would happen [C]
anew
[G] Well, I've done all [D] I've thought [Em] of in life
[C] With a little [G] time bomb [D] I've fought [Em] all my life
