Verse 1
D MajorD             Dsus2Dsus2
There's a man I meet, Walks up our street,
G+G               A augmentedA
He's a worker for the council, Has been twenty years
D MajorD                Dsus2Dsus2
And he takes no lip off nobody, And litter off the gutter,
G+G          A augmentedA
Puts it in a bag, And never thinks to mutter
D MajorD                      Dsus2Dsus2
And he packs his lunch in a Sunblest bag, The children call him Bogie,
G+G           A augmentedA
He never lets on, But I know 'cause he once told me
D MajorD                Dsus2Dsus2
He let me know a secret, About the money in his kitty,
G+G              A augmentedA         D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2 G+G A augmentedA
He's gonna buy a dinghy, Gonna call her Dignity

Chorus
G+G                      A augmentedA
And I'll sail her up the west coast, Through villages and towns,
F# minorF#m           B minorBm
I'll be on my holidays, They'll be doing their rounds
G+G                   A augmentedA
They'll ask me how I got her I'll say, I saved my money
F# minorF#m                 B minorBm F# minorF#m  G+G  A augmentedA  D MajorD
They'll say isn't she pretty, That ship called Dignity

Verse 2
D MajorD              Dsus2Dsus2
And I'm telling this story, In a faraway scene
G+G           A augmentedA
Sipping down Raki, And reading Maynard Keynes
D MajorD              Dsus2Dsus2
And I'm thinking about home, And all that means
G+G               A augmentedA    D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2 G+G A augmentedA
And a place in the winter, For Dignity

Chorus

And I'll sail her up the west coast, Through villages and towns,
F# minorF#m           B minorBm
I'll be on my holidays, They'll be doing their rounds

They'll ask me how I got her I'll say, I saved my money
F# minorF#m                 B minorBm F# minorF#m  G+G  A augmentedA  D MajorD
They'll say isn't she pretty, That ship called Dignity

And I'm thinking, How good it would be
   G+G      A augmentedA
To be here some day

On a ship called Dignity, A augmentedA ship called Dignity

That ship...
