Intro
F A7
Alf was seventeen
A#
When he saw Penelope
Gm
She was the woman of his dreams
F A7
She was twenty-six
A#
But nine is just a number
Gm C
When it all comes down to it
[Verse]
F C
And he watched her from afar
Gm
Until one day he plucked the courage
A#
To say you look like a movie star
F C
But Penelope brushed it off
Gm
And said why don't you come back, Alf, when
A# C
You've got a job
A# F C
So he worked the paper round
A# F C
Until he had himself five pounds
A# Am C
Bought a bouquet of roses red
A# F C
Penelope turned around and said
[Chorus]
F A7
Alfred Benson, you're such a gent
A#
But I didn't mean to lead you on
Am Gm C
That was never my intent
F A7
Alfred Benson, you're such a doll
A A# Am
You should find a girl that treats you right
Gm C
And take her home
[Verse]
F A7
Out of the blue
A# Am
Alf is twenty three and now
Gm C
Penelope is thirty two
F A
As he smiled across the bar
A# Am
She rolled her eyes enticingly
Gm C
And gestured from afar
F C
She told Alf about her new guy
Gm
And said they've booked the wedding
A#
For the seventh of July
F C
Alfred's head was in a state
Gm
But he offered her a drink
A# C
Since it was time to celebrate
[Pre-Chorus]
A# F C
And so he ordered the first round
A# F C
And they drank until the stools were upside down
A# F C
As she finished off her glass of red
A# Am C
Drunkenly she turned and said
[Chorus]
F A7
Alfred Benson, he's just not my type
A#
He never buys me flowers
Am Gm C
He doesn't hold me in the night
F A7
Alfred Benson, I wish you were mine
Am7 A#
We could run away
Am Gm C
And leave this dreary life behind
[Verse]
Gm C
And now for chapter three
F C Dm
Alfred Benson's in his late thirty's
Gm C
Penny is married with children of her own
F Em Dm
Sadly not with Alfred who's all alone
Gm C
But one day in the summer of thirty-three
F
Alfred went to Penny's house
Em Dm
And he got down on one knee
A# C
Pleading, could you marry me?
[Outro]
F A7
Alfred Benson, no, don't you dare
A#
You could've had the world, my love,
Am Gm C
But you're not going anywhere (not dressed like that)
F A
Alfred Benson, you're just not the one
A# A
Of course you know I loved you, but this stops now
Gm
We had our fun
C F
My darling, Alfred Benson, love.
