Intro
A C#7
Alf was seventeen
D
When he saw Penelope
Bm
She was the woman of his dreams
A C#7
She was twenty-six
D
But nine is just a number
Bm E
When it all comes down to it
[Verse]
A E
And he watched her from afar
Bm
Until one day he plucked the courage
D
To say you look like a movie star
A E
But Penelope brushed it off
Bm
And said why don't you come back, Alf, when
D E
You've got a job
D A E
So he worked the paper round
D A E
Until he had himself five pounds
D C#m E
Bought a bouquet of roses red
D A E
Penelope turned around and said
[Chorus]
A C#7
Alfred Benson, you're such a gent
D
But I didn't mean to lead you on
C#m Bm E
That was never my intent
A C#7
Alfred Benson, you're such a doll
C# D C#m
You should find a girl that treats you right
Bm E
And take her home
[Verse]
A C#7
Out of the blue
D C#m
Alf is twenty three and now
Bm E
Penelope is thirty two
A C#
As he smiled across the bar
D C#m
She rolled her eyes enticingly
Bm E
And gestured from afar
A E
She told Alf about her new guy
Bm
And said they've booked the wedding
D
For the seventh of July
A E
Alfred's head was in a state
Bm
But he offered her a drink
D E
Since it was time to celebrate
[Pre-Chorus]
D A E
And so he ordered the first round
D A E
And they drank until the stools were upside down
D A E
As she finished off her glass of red
D C#m E
Drunkenly she turned and said
[Chorus]
A C#7
Alfred Benson, he's just not my type
D
He never buys me flowers
C#m Bm E
He doesn't hold me in the night
A C#7
Alfred Benson, I wish you were mine
C#m7 D
We could run away
C#m Bm E
And leave this dreary life behind
[Verse]
Bm E
And now for chapter three
A E F#m
Alfred Benson's in his late thirty's
Bm E
Penny is married with children of her own
A G#m F#m
Sadly not with Alfred who's all alone
Bm E
But one day in the summer of thirty-three
A
Alfred went to Penny's house
G#m F#m
And he got down on one knee
D E
Pleading, could you marry me?
[Outro]
A C#7
Alfred Benson, no, don't you dare
D
You could've had the world, my love,
C#m Bm E
But you're not going anywhere (not dressed like that)
A C#
Alfred Benson, you're just not the one
D C#
Of course you know I loved you, but this stops now
Bm
We had our fun
E A
My darling, Alfred Benson, love.
