[Verse 1]
E B
I once met a country gentleman's wife
C#m G#m E C#m
who told me of ev'rything she owned.
E B
Show showed me her diamond bracelets
C#m F#7 B7
and talked about her stately home.
A B E C#m
And all thru the conversation
A F#m B7
her hand was on my knee,
C#m A E F#7
but oh no country gentleman's wife
A B E
is gonna get possession of me.
[Verse 2]
E B
She told me her country gentleman
C#m G#m E C#m
was hardly ever at home
E B
and if I would like to call on her
C#m F#7 B7
she'd make sure we were alone.
A B E C#m
And if I liked we could have supper
A F#m B7
with sparkling champagne,
C#m A E F#7
but oh no country gentleman's wife
A B E
is gonna get me for game.
[Verse 3]
E B
She told me her country gentleman
C#m G#m E C#m
was sixty five years old,
E B
and as she was only thirty one
C#m F#7 B7
her bed at night was cold.
A B E C#m
And if I would like to warm it up
A F#m B7
she'd shower me with gratitude,
C#m A E F#7
but oh no country gentleman's wife
A B E
is gonna get me in the nude.
[Verse 4]
E B
I said I was a man with principles
C#m G#m E C#m
and respected the marriage vows,
E B
but if she really wanted to
C#m F#7 B7
she might persuade me somehow
A B E C#m
for one square meal of every day
A F#m B7
an unlimited supply of booze,
C#m A E F#7
and any old country gentleman's wife
A B E
can do anything they choose,
C#m A E F#7
and any old country gentleman's wife
A B E
can do anything they choose,
