[Verse 1]
CFred sits aAm7lone at his Emdesk in the dG7ark
There's an Cawkward young Am7shadow that Emwaits in the G7hall
He has Am7cleared all his Fthings and he's Am7put them in Fboxes
CThings that remind him: 'GLife has been good'
Fmaj7Twenty-five years he's wDm11orked at the paper
A Cman's here to take him downGstairs Gsus4 G
And I'm Csorry, Mr FJones G7it's

[Verse 2]
CThere was no Am7party, Emthere were no G7songs
'Cause todCay's just a Am7day like the dEmay that he G7started
Am7No one is Fleft here that Am7knows his first Fname
And Clife barrels on like a Grunaway train
Where the Fmaj7passengers change they don't Dm11change anything
You get Coff; someone else can get Gon Gsus4 G
And I'm Csorry, Mr FJones G7it's
Ctime Am7 Em7 G7

Casting Flines on the floor and Clines on his G/Bface
He reFflects on the Cday

[Verse 3]
CFred gets his Am7paints out and Emgoes to the G7basement
ProCjecting some Am7slides Emonto a pG7lain white
Am7Canvas and Ftraces it, Am7fills in the Fspaces
He Cturns off the slides, and it Gdoesn't look right
Yeah, and Fmaj7all of these bastards have Dm11taken his place
He's forCgotten but not yet Ggone Gsus4 G
