Intro
A# D7
Alf was seventeen
D#
When he saw Penelope
Cm
She was the woman of his dreams
A# D7
She was twenty-six
D#
But nine is just a number
Cm F
When it all comes down to it
[Verse]
A# F
And he watched her from afar
Cm
Until one day he plucked the courage
D#
To say you look like a movie star
A# F
But Penelope brushed it off
Cm
And said why don't you come back, Alf, when
D# F
You've got a job
D# A# F
So he worked the paper round
D# A# F
Until he had himself five pounds
D# Dm F
Bought a bouquet of roses red
D# A# F
Penelope turned around and said
[Chorus]
A# D7
Alfred Benson, you're such a gent
D#
But I didn't mean to lead you on
Dm Cm F
That was never my intent
A# D7
Alfred Benson, you're such a doll
D D# Dm
You should find a girl that treats you right
Cm F
And take her home
[Verse]
A# D7
Out of the blue
D# Dm
Alf is twenty three and now
Cm F
Penelope is thirty two
A# D
As he smiled across the bar
D# Dm
She rolled her eyes enticingly
Cm F
And gestured from afar
A# F
She told Alf about her new guy
Cm
And said they've booked the wedding
D#
For the seventh of July
A# F
Alfred's head was in a state
Cm
But he offered her a drink
D# F
Since it was time to celebrate
[Pre-Chorus]
D# A# F
And so he ordered the first round
D# A# F
And they drank until the stools were upside down
D# A# F
As she finished off her glass of red
D# Dm F
Drunkenly she turned and said
[Chorus]
A# D7
Alfred Benson, he's just not my type
D#
He never buys me flowers
Dm Cm F
He doesn't hold me in the night
A# D7
Alfred Benson, I wish you were mine
Dm7 D#
We could run away
Dm Cm F
And leave this dreary life behind
[Verse]
Cm F
And now for chapter three
A# F Gm
Alfred Benson's in his late thirty's
Cm F
Penny is married with children of her own
A# Am Gm
Sadly not with Alfred who's all alone
Cm F
But one day in the summer of thirty-three
A#
Alfred went to Penny's house
Am Gm
And he got down on one knee
D# F
Pleading, could you marry me?
[Outro]
A# D7
Alfred Benson, no, don't you dare
D#
You could've had the world, my love,
Dm Cm F
But you're not going anywhere (not dressed like that)
A# D
Alfred Benson, you're just not the one
D# D
Of course you know I loved you, but this stops now
Cm
We had our fun
F A#
My darling, Alfred Benson, love.
