Mr.
Just last month I became a quarter of a century man.
And how long have you been in the mailroom?
skill, diplomacy, and bold caution.
When I joined this firm as [Bb] a brash young [E] man,
[Ebm] Well, I said to myself, [Ab] now, brash young man, [Ebm] don't get any [Ab]
ideas.
[Db] You play it [D] safe.

Mr.
Twimble, you've been with this company a long time, haven't you?
Long, long time.
Just last month I became a quarter of a century man.
That's beautiful.
Gee, a quarter of a century.
And how long have you been in the mailroom?
25 years.
Yep, it takes a combination of skill, diplomacy, and bold caution.
_ [Ebm] _
When I joined this firm as [Bb] a brash young [E] man,

Watch that genius [Ebm] get [Bbm] suggested to resign.

Early in the week.
