"Mistress And Maid" (capo: 5th. fret) ____Verse: 1 /C She said, D7 Come in my dear, You're looking tired tonight Bm Your bath is drawn, let me loosen your tie A7 And fix you your usual drink ____Verse: 2
D7 He settles back, Takes a magazine, Bm Kicks off his shoes, as he studies the form A7-9 Of every appealing soubrette ____Chorus: 1 Dm But where are the flowers that he used to bring Am With every endearing remark G Reminds her of passionate promises, A#dim That he only made in the dark, in her bed, E She wants to shout at the back of his head A#dim Look at me, look at me, look at me I'm afraid Bm See what it's come to, C I'm just your Mistress and Maid. ____Verse: 3 D7 The wine is warm But the dinner is cold Bm The look in his eye tells her it won't be long A7-9 'till the girls on the page come to life ____Chorus: 2 Dm And they'll get the flowers that he used to bring Am With every endearing remark, G And all of the passionate promises A#dim He'll never fulfill in the dark, in their bed, E She wants to shout at the back of his head A#dim Look at me, look at me, now that I'm not afraid. Bm See what it's come to, D7 I'm not your mistress and maid. ____Coda: Bm See what it's come to, D7 I'm not your mistress and maid, *oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh* (Repeat *-*) D7
