Mrs. Rita Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Oh k[Dm]ind M[Am]rs Ri[Dm]ta,[Am]
I [Dm]never will tell
The [Am]way that you keep
us poor [Dm]girls here in hell
I [F]never will sneak to [Esus4]the
news of the world
[E]Oh [F]kind Mrs Rita, sincer[Dm]e Mrs Rita
A [F]friend to a stranger,
a ma [G]to [Am]a gi[Dm]rl[G][Am][Dm]
With [Am]the chalking and cutting
and stitch[Dm]ing and such
We [Am]earn what we earn
and it [Dm]isn't too much
[F]Enough to keep half a step
[Esus4]higher than trash
[E]All[F] kind Mrs Rita, sincer[Dm]e Mrs Rita
So [F]loose with the purse strings,
[G]free with the [Am]cash
[G#]Some guardian angel take pity
and [Eb]sweep me [C#m]away
[F#m]Seems [C#]I wo[F#m]rk every hou[G#]r,
[C#m]got sand in the da[Bm]y
To [Dm]line the pockets of Rita [F]O 'Connor,
To [Bb]line the pockets of [G]Rita O 'Connor.
Oh, you [Am]can't call it stealing
or [Dm]helping yourself,
If the [Am]odd pair of nylon
should [Dm]fall off the shelf,
And [F]fall into somebody's [Esus4]handbag,
let's say.
[E]All[F] kind Mrs. Rita, sincer[Dm]e
Mrs. Rita,
it [F]sort of makes up for the [G]pitiful [Am]pay.
[Dm][G][Am][F][Am][F][Am][Esus4]
[E]Oh [F]kind Mrs[Dm]. Rita, Mrs. Rita,
God [F]keep and preserve you,
we'll [G]love [Am]you a[Dm]lways.[G]
[Dm][Am][Dm][G][Dm][Am]
You
