D6 : x-x-0-2-0-2
INTRO : E - E - A - A - G - D/F# - E - E
VERSE :
E A
She called me up today
G D/F# E
Meet me down at the old café
E A
I jumped into the shower
G D/F# E
I was getting my marching orders
CHORUS :
D Dsus4
We need to talk
D Dsus4 - D - G - D/F#
Step into my office, baby
D F
I wanna give you the job
C F
A chance of overtime
B E
Say, my place at nine?
(verse chords)
She'd never stand for any lies
She's got an Out Tray full of guys
I could sense a breath, a whole new feeling
Now she says she wants to call a meeting
(play chorus)
BRIDGE :
Am D
I'm a slave to work
G B7 Em A
I'm only living when I walk amongst the office staff
D B7
And catch up with the office wag
E A
I'll be in bed by nine
B A
My curtains drawn
E
My thoughts composed
A B
I get to work on time
(verse chords)
She gave me some dictation
But my strength is in administration
I took down all she said
I even took down her little red dress
(chorus chords)
We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
I wanna give you the job
I'm pushing for a raise
Been pushing now for days
BRIDGE 2 :
E A
My output is in decline
A G C A
I was burned out after Thatcher
E D6
My banner I laid down with a sigh
A G C A
Now I doubt if I'll ever catch her
(E7)
(verse chords)
I've got to change my ways
Dress for business every day
A smart suit and a kipper tie
A big arrow pointing to my fly
(chorus chords)
We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
I wanna give you the job
A chance of overtime
Say, my place at nine?
