Guitar chords with lyrics

Intro - D Dsus2 G A

Verse 1
D                          Dsus2
There's a man I meet, Walks up our street,
G                              A
He's a worker for the council, Has been twenty years
D                               Dsus2
And he takes no lip off nobody, And litter off the gutter,
G                    A
Puts it in a bag, And never thinks to mutter
D                                            Dsus2
And he packs his lunch in a Sunblest bag, The children call him Bogie,
G                     A
He never lets on, But I know 'cause he once told me
D                                Dsus2
He let me know a secret, About the money in his kitty,
G                            A                  D  Dsus2  G  A
He's gonna buy a dinghy, Gonna call her Dignity

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

Verse 2
D                           Dsus2
And I'm telling this story, In a faraway scene
G                      A
Sipping down Raki, And reading Maynard Keynes
D                            Dsus2
And I'm thinking about home, And all that means
G                              A       D  Dsus2  G  A
And a place in the winter, For Dignity

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

D                                                        Dsus2
Set it up set it up set it up set it up set it up set it up
     G                                                             A
Yeah set it up again set it up again set it up again set it up again
D                                                        Dsus2
Set it up set it up set it up set it up set it up set it up
     G                                                             A
Yeah set it up again set it up again set it up again set it up again

D                          Dsus2  G  A
And I'm thinking about home
D                           Dsus2  G  A
And I'm thinking about faith
D                          Dsus2  G  A
And I'm thinking about work
D                     Dsus2
And I'm thinking, How good it would be
      G            A
To be here some day
D                           Dsus2               G
On a ship called Dignity, A ship called Dignity
A
That ship...
D , Dsus2 , G , A
