Disraeli Won't You Please Come Home chords by Allan Sherman

Chords with lyrics

C majorC
When Benjamin Disraeli was Prime Minister of England,
                   G+G
And good old Queen Victoria was the Queen,

Whenever she would need him for official palace business,
                 C majorC
Disraeli, he was nowhere to be seen.

She went down to 10 Downing Street,
             C7C7
The doorbell there she rang,
             G+G
And when there was no answer,
               C majorC
This is what the good Queen sang:

 C majorC
Won't you come home, Disraeli. Won't you come home.
           G7G7
Come home to Queen Victoria.

Don't leave that House of Commons, and that House of Lords.
             C majorC
Just sittin' waiting for you
                     C7C7
I'm gettin' awful lomesome, 'cause all I do
              FF
Is sit here reading Ethan Frome
Dm7Dm7         FF
Now don't leave me flat
C majorC              A7A7
The key to the palace is under the mat.
D7D7           G7G7    C majorC
Disraeli, won't you please come home.

Won't you come home, Disraeli. Won't you come home.
Come home to Queen Victoria.
Don't leave that House of Commons, and that House of Lords.
You claim official business took you away
To Egypt, and Bombay, and Rome.
'Cause you're the Nineteenth Century Richard Burton,
Disraeli, won't you please (I miss you, Dizzy)
