Beautiful South
Intro:
[C] [C] [C] [C]

Verse 1:
[C] Think of you with [G] pipe and slippers, [F] Think of her in [G] bed
[F] Laying there just [C] watching telly, [D7] Think of me in[G]stead
I'll [C] never grow so [G] old and flabby, [F] That could never [G] be
[F*] Don't marry [G*] her, have [C] me.

Verse 2:
Your [C] love light shines like [G] cardboard, Your [F] work shoes they are [G] glistening
She's a [F] Phd in 'I [C] told you so', You've a [D7] knighthood in 'I'm not [G] listening'
She’ll [C] always be be-[G]side you, [F] Bring you cups of [G] tea
[F*] Don't marry [G*] her, have [C] me.

Verse 3:
Those [C] lovely Sunday [G] mornings, With [F] breakfast brought in [G] bed
Those [F] blackbirds look like [C] knitting needles, [D7] Trying to peck your [G] head
Those [C] birds will peck your [G] soul out, And [F] throw away the [G] key
[F*] Don't marry [G*] her, have [C] me.

Verse 4:
The [C] kitchen's always [G] tidy, The [F] bathroom's always [G] clean
She's a di-[F]ploma in 'just [C] hiding things', You've a [D7] first in 'low es-[G]teem'
Your [C] socks might smell of [G] angels, Your [F] life might smell of [G] Brie
[F*] Don't marry [G*] her, have [C] me.

Outro:
And the [C*] Sunday sun shines down on San Fran-[F*]cisco [C*] Bay 
And you [F*] realize you can't make it any-[C*]way
You [C*] have to wash the car
Take the [F*] kiddies to the [C*] park
{blue}(Slowing){/blue}
[F*] Don't marry [G*] her, have [C*] me.
