(chorus)
A A D A
It’s going round the town
A A D A
It’s going round the town
A E
It’s going round the town
E A D A
You’re so lovable
D A
My baby gave me notice to quit
E A
I just can’t get used to it
D A
She broke my little heart in two
E B
Now somebody else is being the same old you
(chorus
D A
My baby has Egyptian eyes
E A
And a wicked look beyond compare
D A
If you thought I was a fool for you
E B
Then I must be a bigger fool for her
(chorus)
He’d turn the flowers of springtime into a wreath
He says he’d love you eternally
I say please please can’t you keep it brief
A D
They say they’re going to bury you
E A
Because you’re so lovable
A D
Put your money where your mouth was
E A
You’re so lovable
A D
Each tender mumble brings us closer to bedlam
E A
You’re so lovable
A D
The toast of the town and the talk of the bedroom
(modulation)
You’re so lovable
You’re so sweet
You’re so honest
You say `I’ll be true to you boy’
But I won’t promise
Then you say you love me
Then you show me
As you lie there so lifelike below me
(chorus)
