Intro
G# C7
Alf was seventeen
C#
When he saw Penelope
A#m
She was the woman of his dreams
G# C7
She was twenty-six
C#
But nine is just a number
A#m D#
When it all comes down to it
[Verse]
G# D#
And he watched her from afar
A#m
Until one day he plucked the courage
C#
To say you look like a movie star
G# D#
But Penelope brushed it off
A#m
And said why don't you come back, Alf, when
C# D#
You've got a job
C# G# D#
So he worked the paper round
C# G# D#
Until he had himself five pounds
C# Cm D#
Bought a bouquet of roses red
C# G# D#
Penelope turned around and said
[Chorus]
G# C7
Alfred Benson, you're such a gent
C#
But I didn't mean to lead you on
Cm A#m D#
That was never my intent
G# C7
Alfred Benson, you're such a doll
C C# Cm
You should find a girl that treats you right
A#m D#
And take her home
[Verse]
G# C7
Out of the blue
C# Cm
Alf is twenty three and now
A#m D#
Penelope is thirty two
G# C
As he smiled across the bar
C# Cm
She rolled her eyes enticingly
A#m D#
And gestured from afar
G# D#
She told Alf about her new guy
A#m
And said they've booked the wedding
C#
For the seventh of July
G# D#
Alfred's head was in a state
A#m
But he offered her a drink
C# D#
Since it was time to celebrate
[Pre-Chorus]
C# G# D#
And so he ordered the first round
C# G# D#
And they drank until the stools were upside down
C# G# D#
As she finished off her glass of red
C# Cm D#
Drunkenly she turned and said
[Chorus]
G# C7
Alfred Benson, he's just not my type
C#
He never buys me flowers
Cm A#m D#
He doesn't hold me in the night
G# C7
Alfred Benson, I wish you were mine
Cm7 C#
We could run away
Cm A#m D#
And leave this dreary life behind
[Verse]
A#m D#
And now for chapter three
G# D# Fm
Alfred Benson's in his late thirty's
A#m D#
Penny is married with children of her own
G# Gm Fm
Sadly not with Alfred who's all alone
A#m D#
But one day in the summer of thirty-three
G#
Alfred went to Penny's house
Gm Fm
And he got down on one knee
C# D#
Pleading, could you marry me?
[Outro]
G# C7
Alfred Benson, no, don't you dare
C#
You could've had the world, my love,
Cm A#m D#
But you're not going anywhere (not dressed like that)
G# C
Alfred Benson, you're just not the one
C# C
Of course you know I loved you, but this stops now
A#m
We had our fun
D# G#
My darling, Alfred Benson, love.
