Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
The boss[G#dim]gets on m[E]y nerves,
I've got a good mind [Bdim]to quit.
[E]I've taken all I can,
it's time to get up and get,
and move to another job,
or maybe another [F]town.
[E]The gentleman [Am]burns me [Dm]up,
the gen[Am]tleman [Bb]get s me
[Am]down.[E][Am][E][Am]
[E]Gentleman is a dope,
a man of many [Am]faults.
[F]A clumsy Joe
[F#]would know a [Dm]rumba from
a [E]waltz.
The gentleman is a [Am]dope
and [Dm]not my cup of tea.
[F]Why am I cryin' my eyes out?
He [Am]doesn't be[E]long to [Am]me.[E]
The gentleman isn't bright,
he doesn't know [Am]the score.
A [F]cake will come,
he'll take a [F#]crumb
and [Bdim]never ask for mo[E]re.
The gentleman's eyes are [Am]blue,
[Dm]but little do they see.
[F]Why am I cryin' [C]my eyes [F]out?
[Am]He doesn't bel[E]ong to me.
[Am]He's [A]somebod[D]y else's
[E]pro[Bdim]blem.[A]
[D]She's [Bm]welc[G]ome to the guy.[C#dim][C]
She'll never understand him
[F]half as wel[B]l as [Bdim]I.[E]
The [A]gentleman [E]is a dope,
he is[Am]n't very [E]smart.[Am]
He's [F]just a lug,
[F#]you'd love to hug and [G]hold
against your [Bdim]heart.
[E]The gentleman[Am] doesn't know
how happy [Dm]he could be.
[F]Look at me crying,
my [Fm]eyes [F]are [Fm]as i[C]f he[B]
belonged [E]to [C]me.[F][Bdim][E]
He'll [Am]never[C] , no ne[Dm]ver
Be[E]long to me!
[E][Am]
