Intro
D# G7
Alf was seventeen
G#
When he saw Penelope
Fm
She was the woman of his dreams
D# G7
She was twenty-six
G#
But nine is just a number
Fm A#
When it all comes down to it
[Verse]
D# A#
And he watched her from afar
Fm
Until one day he plucked the courage
G#
To say you look like a movie star
D# A#
But Penelope brushed it off
Fm
And said why don't you come back, Alf, when
G# A#
You've got a job
G# D# A#
So he worked the paper round
G# D# A#
Until he had himself five pounds
G# Gm A#
Bought a bouquet of roses red
G# D# A#
Penelope turned around and said
[Chorus]
D# G7
Alfred Benson, you're such a gent
G#
But I didn't mean to lead you on
Gm Fm A#
That was never my intent
D# G7
Alfred Benson, you're such a doll
G G# Gm
You should find a girl that treats you right
Fm A#
And take her home
[Verse]
D# G7
Out of the blue
G# Gm
Alf is twenty three and now
Fm A#
Penelope is thirty two
D# G
As he smiled across the bar
G# Gm
She rolled her eyes enticingly
Fm A#
And gestured from afar
D# A#
She told Alf about her new guy
Fm
And said they've booked the wedding
G#
For the seventh of July
D# A#
Alfred's head was in a state
Fm
But he offered her a drink
G# A#
Since it was time to celebrate
[Pre-Chorus]
G# D# A#
And so he ordered the first round
G# D# A#
And they drank until the stools were upside down
G# D# A#
As she finished off her glass of red
G# Gm A#
Drunkenly she turned and said
[Chorus]
D# G7
Alfred Benson, he's just not my type
G#
He never buys me flowers
Gm Fm A#
He doesn't hold me in the night
D# G7
Alfred Benson, I wish you were mine
Gm7 G#
We could run away
Gm Fm A#
And leave this dreary life behind
[Verse]
Fm A#
And now for chapter three
D# A# Cm
Alfred Benson's in his late thirty's
Fm A#
Penny is married with children of her own
D# Dm Cm
Sadly not with Alfred who's all alone
Fm A#
But one day in the summer of thirty-three
D#
Alfred went to Penny's house
Dm Cm
And he got down on one knee
G# A#
Pleading, could you marry me?
[Outro]
D# G7
Alfred Benson, no, don't you dare
G#
You could've had the world, my love,
Gm Fm A#
But you're not going anywhere (not dressed like that)
D# G
Alfred Benson, you're just not the one
G# G
Of course you know I loved you, but this stops now
Fm
We had our fun
A# D#
My darling, Alfred Benson, love.
