Chords

[Verse 1]
G7          C                G7
I feel a surge of deep satisfaction

G7                                 C
Much as a king astride his noble steed

G7        C                 C7                Adim7
When I return from daily strife to hearth and wife

C                     G7     C
How pleasant is the life I lead
[Verse 2]
G7        C                   G7
I run my home precisely on schedule

G7                                C
At six-o-one I march through my door

C                                 C7    F   Adim7
My slippers sherry and pipe are due at six-o-two

C                   G7     C
Consistent is the life I lead
[Chorus]
Gb                                 Db7
It's grand to be an Englishman in 1910

Gb                                     Db7
King Edward's on the throne, it's the age of men

B                                 Fb7
I'm the lord of my castle, the sovereign, the liege

B                                  Fb7
I treat my subjects — servants, children, wife

D7                            G7
With a firm but gentle hand:  noblesse oblige
[Verse 3]
G7           C                          G7
It's six-o-three and the heirs to my dominion

G7                                      C
Are scrubbed and tubbed and adequately fed

G7           C                C7       F             Adim7
And so I'll pat them on the head and send them off to bed

C                  G7     C
Ah, lordly is the life I lead
