She was young, she was pure, she was new, she was nice

E B G#m
He was old, he was vile, and no stranger to vice
C# F#
He was base, he was bad, he was mean
B E
He had slyly inveigled her up to his flat
C#m F#
To view his collection of stamps
B E B G#m
And he said as he hastened to put out the cat
E F#
The wine, his cigar and the lamps
B
Have some madeira, m'dear
F#
You really have nothing to fear
E B G#m
I'm not trying to tempt you, that wouldn't be right
C# F#
You shouldn't drink spirits at this time of night
B
Have some madeira, m'dear
F#
It's really much nicer than beer
E B G#m
I don't care for sherry, one cannot drink stout
C# F#
And port is a wine I can well do without
B E B G#m
It's simply a case of chacun a son gout
E F# B
Have some madeira, m'dear
B
Unaware of the wiles of the snake-in-the-grass
F#
And the fate of the maiden who topes
E B G#m
She lowered her standards by raising her glass
C# F#
Her courage, her eyes and his hopes
B E
She sipped it, she drank it, she drained it, she did
C#m F#
He promptly refilled it again
B E B G#m
And he said as he secretly carved one more notch
E F#
On the butt of his gold-headed cane
B
Have some madeira, m'dear,
F#
I've got a small cask of it here
E B G#m
And once it's been opened, you know it won't keep
C# F#
Do finish it up, it will help you to sleep
B
Have some madeira, m'dear,
F#
It's really an excellent year
E B G#m
Now if it were gin, you'd be wrong to say yes
C# F#
The evil gin does would be hard to assess
B E B G#m
Besides it's inclined to affect me prowess
E F# B
Have some madeira, m'dear

Then there flashed through her mind what her mother had said
F#
With her antepenultimate breath
E B G#m
"Oh my child, should you look on the wine that is red
C# F#
Be prepared for a fate worse than death"
B E
She let go her glass with a shrill little cry
C#m F#
Crash! tinkle! it fell to the floor
B E B G#m
When he asked, "What in Heaven?" she made no reply
E F#
Up her mind, and a dash for the door
B
Have some madeira, m'dear,
F#
Rang out down the hall loud and clear
E B G#m
G# tremulous cry that was filled with despair
C# F#
As she paused to take breath in the cool midnight air
B
Have some madeira, m'dear,
F#
The words seemed to ring in her ear
E B G#m
Until the next morning, she woke up in bed
C# F#
With a smile on her lips and an ache in her head
B E B G#m
And a beard in her ear 'ole that tickled and said
E F# B
Have some madeira, m'dear
