Title: Rose
Artist: Benny Hill
Chords:
C,
F,
G7,
This song can be found on the CD "The World of Benny Hill - Benny Hill
Sings?" which includes 25 of his comedy classics. It also appeared on
an old vinyl recording, "The Golden Hour of Benny Hill."
She's got eyes that glow like cigarettes,
With ashtrays underneath,
And when she bites her fingernails,
Her mother hides her teeth.
Her general appearance,
Is what you'd call offbeat,
I don't mind girls with kinky boots, but she's...
[N/
C]Got kinky [
C]feet. [
C7]
Chorus:
Oh there's flowers that bloom in the summertime, the winter and the
[
C]fall,
But the rose that blooms in my heart, I love the best of all.
Now her teeth are just like pearls,
Only Pearl's teeth ain't so hot,
Her heart is in the right place,
But the rest of her is not.
Now, at her birthday party,
The cake, it wasn't bad,
And I liked the 18 candles that were on...
[N/C]The slice I had.
Chorus
Now she's lazy, she's lethargic,
And working she resents,
She's slower than a nudist
Trying to climb a barbed wire fence.
Why she talks so slow, one evening when
She went out with her boss,
Before she could say I'm not that kind...
[N/C]Of a girl she was.
Chorus twice
This is one in a series of Benny Hill songs I've learned by ear. Most of
these songs have only three chords which makes it easy figure them out. I
might have missed some chords or put the wrong ones down, but the basic
structure is there at any rate. I welcome any comments, corrections or
suggestions for improvement.
