Intro: Cm9Cm9 Cm9/G
Cm9Cm9
I admit that in the past I've been a nasty
C#7C#7
They weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch
G7(sus4)/D G7(sus4)
But you'll find that nowadays
G7(sus4)/D G7(sus4)
I've mended all my ways
G#G# C#C# G+G G7G7
Repented, seen the light, and made a switch
Cm9Cm9 Cm9/G
And I fortunately know a little magic
C#7C#7
It's a talent that I always have possessed
G7(sus4)/D G7(sus4)
And dear lady, please don't laugh
G7(sus4)/D G7(sus4)
I use it on behalf
G#G# C#C# G7sus4G7sus4 G/F
Of the miserable, the lonely, and depressed (pathetic)
Cm9Cm9 G7(b9) Cm9Cm9
Poor unfortunate souls
Dm7(b5) G7G7 Cm9Cm9
In pain, in need
Dm7(b5) G7G7
This one longing to be thinner
Cm9Cm9 Cm/Eb
That one wants to get the girl
D7D7
And do I help them?
Dm7(b5) G7G7
Yes, indeed
Cm9Cm9 G7(b9) Cm9Cm9
Those poor unfortunate souls
Dm7(b5) G7G7 Cm9Cm9
So sad, so true
Dm7(b5) G7G7
They come flocking to my cauldron
Cm9Cm9
Crying, "Spells, Ursula, please!"
Dm7(b5) G7G7
And I help them!
Cm7Cm7
Yes I do
Dm7(b5)
Now it's happened once or twice
Fm6Fm6
Someone couldn't pay the price
G7sus4G7sus4 G7G7 C majorC
And I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals
D#D#
Yes I've had the odd complaint
G#G# C#C#
But on the whole I've been a saint
Cm/G G7G7 Cm9Cm9
To those poor unfortunate souls
C minorCm Cm/G
Have we got a deal?
( Dm9Dm9 Dm9/A )
Dm9Dm9
The men up there don't like a lot of blabber
D#D#
They think a girl who gossips is a bore!
Em7(5b) A7A7 Em7(5b) A7A7
Yet on land it's much prefered for ladies not to say a word
A#A# Eb MajorEb A7A7 A/GA/G
And after all dear, what is idle babble for?
Dm9Dm9
Come on, they're not all that impressed with conversation
D#D#
True gentlemen avoid it when they can
Em7(5b) A7A7 Em7(5b) A7A7
But they dote and swoon and fawn on a lady who's withdrawn
A#A# D#D# A7A7 A/GA/G
It's she who holds her tongue who get's a man
Dm9Dm9 A7(b9) Dm9Dm9
Come on you poor unfortunate soul
Em7(b5) A7A7 Dm9Dm9
Go ahead! Make your choice!
Em7(b5) A7A7 Dm9Dm9 Dm9/F
I'm a very busy woman and I haven't got all day
E7E7
It won't cost much
A7A7
Just your voice!
Dm9Dm9 A7(b9) Dm9Dm9
You poor unfortunate soul
Em7(b5) A7A7 Dm9Dm9
It's sad but true
Em7(5b) A7A7
If you want to cross the bridge, my sweet
DmDm
You've got the pay the toll
Em7(5b) A7A7
Take a gulp and take a breath
Em7(5b) A7A7
And go ahead and sign the scroll
Em7(5b) A7A7
Flotsam, Jetsam, now I've got her, boys
DmDm F7F7+/C Dm/B
The boss is on a roll
A#9A#9 A7A7 DmDm
