"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
