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