What an infantile idea.
What a heartless, wicked, brainless thing to do.
_ _ But she'll regret it.
_ [D] She'll regret it!
_ It's doomed before they even take the vow. _ _ _
I can see her now, Mrs.

[Gm] And end up selling [D] flowers instead.

While [Gbm] her husband [F] has his breakfast [A] in bed.

_ In a [Bb] year or so, when she's [Em] [Dm] prematurely grey and the blossom in her cheek has [Gm] turned to chalk. _ _
She'll come [Ebm] home [C] and lo, he'll have [B] upped and run away [Em] with a social climbing [A] [Gb] heiress from New York. _
[B] Poor am I.
How simply [C] _
frightful.
[Ab] How humiliating.
_ _ How [G] delightful.
_ _ _ _ How _ _ [C] poignant it'll be on that inevitable night when she hammers on my door in [Bb] tears and rag.
_ [G] Miserable and lonely, [C] _
repentant and contrite.
[Eb] Will I take her [B] in or [Eb] hurl her to the walls?
[Gb] Give her kindness or the treatment [A] she deserves?
[F] _ Will I take her back or throw the baggage out?
_ [Fm] _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ Well, I'm a most forgiving man.
_ The [E] sort who never could, [G]
ever would, [E] take a position [C] and staunchly [Bb] never _ budge.
_ [F] _
_ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] The [F] most forgiving [Bb] man. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ But [Eb] I shall never take her back. _
_ If she were crawling [Fm] on her [B] knees, _ let [C] her promise to [Bb] atone.
[Abm] Let her shiver, let her [Bb] moan.
I'll slam the [Eb] door and let [Bb] the hell [Eb] cat freeze. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Mary Freddie. _ _

[C] _ _ _ _ But I'm so used to hear [Gb] her say, [Gm] good morning every [G] day.
[F] Her [Bm] joys, [Em] her woes, [Bbm] [Dm] her highs, _ her lows, [Em] are [C] second nature to [G] me now.
_ _ [C] _ _ Like breathing out [F] and breathing in.
_ [C] _ _ _
[F] I'm very grateful she's [B] a woman, [G] and so [A] easy to forget.
_ [Dm] _ Rather like a [G] habit one can [E] _ always break. _ _ _
_ _ [A] And yet, _ [Am]
I've grown [D] accustomed to the trace.
