C#
She was young, she was pure, she was new, she was nice
G#
She was fair, she was sweet seventeen
F# C# A#m
He was old, he was vile, and no stranger to vice
D# G#
He was base, he was bad, he was mean
C# F#
He had slyly inveigled her up to his flat
D#m G#
To view his collection of stamps
C# F# C# A#m
And he said as he hastened to put out the cat
F# G#
The wine, his cigar and the lamps
C#
Have some madeira, m'dear
G#
You really have nothing to fear
F# C# A#m
I'm not trying to tempt you, that wouldn't be right
D# G#
You shouldn't drink spirits at this time of night
C#
Have some madeira, m'dear
G#
It's really much nicer than beer
F# C# A#m
I don't care for sherry, one cannot drink stout
D# G#
And port is a wine I can well do without
C# F# C# A#m
It's simply a case of chacun a son gout
F# G# C#
Have some madeira, m'dear
C#
Unaware of the wiles of the snake-in-the-grass
G#
And the fate of the maiden who topes
F# C# A#m
She lowered her standards by raising her glass
D# G#
Her courage, her eyes and his hopes
C# F#
She sipped it, she drank it, she drained it, she did
D#m G#
He promptly refilled it again
C# F# C# A#m
And he said as he secretly carved one more notch
F# G#
On the butt of his gold-headed cane
C#
Have some madeira, m'dear,
G#
I've got a small cask of it here
F# C# A#m
And once it's been opened, you know it won't keep
D# G#
Do finish it up, it will help you to sleep
C#
Have some madeira, m'dear,
G#
It's really an excellent year
F# C# A#m
Now if it were gin, you'd be wrong to say yes
D# G#
The evil gin does would be hard to assess
C# F# C# A#m
Besides it's inclined to affect me prowess
F# G# C#
Have some madeira, m'dear
C#
Then there flashed through her mind what her mother had said
G#
With her antepenultimate breath
F# C# A#m
"Oh my child, should you look on the wine that is red
D# G#
Be prepared for a fate worse than death"
C# F#
She let go her glass with a shrill little cry
D#m G#
Crash! tinkle! it fell to the floor
C# F# C# A#m
When he asked, "What in Heaven?" she made no reply
F# G#
Up her mind, and a dash for the door
C#
Have some madeira, m'dear,
G#
Rang out down the hall loud and clear
F# C# A#m
A# tremulous cry that was filled with despair
D# G#
As she paused to take breath in the cool midnight air
C#
Have some madeira, m'dear,
G#
The words seemed to ring in her ear
F# C# A#m
Until the next morning, she woke up in bed
D# G#
With a smile on her lips and an ache in her head
C# F# C# A#m
And a beard in her ear 'ole that tickled and said
F# G# C#
Have some madeira, m'dear
