Bb            Adim           D7
   You should stay away from roses

       Gm          F#dim          Cm7
And be careful to avoid chocolate hearts

             Ebm    D7     Cm
Keep distant from romantic notions

       Cm7          F         Cm7   F
'cause that's where love most often starts
Be sure to steer clear of diamonds And mink coats are most certainly out too For if she goes in for that kind of thing She just might fall then what you will do
    Fm7                         G
You know you've always been the sort

      Ebmaj7                 Fm
Who's truly only fond of the sport

    Ebm       Bb7
And who would never be satisfied

  Ebm        Bb7
Reclining in slippers by the fireside

       F#              F#7
With a wife's constant nagging

    E                        A
For things that you can't provide

Who no longer bears resemblance

To that soft spoken flower

            E7                         D   D/C#  B7
You were so desperate to have for your bride

         Cm7               F
Too much conversing with a woman

         Cm7          F
Tends to dull a man's wit
Never be taken in by poets Who claim that love if it's pure will never fade Though love may last all right in a bibliotheque In the real world, man, it's too easily unmade So don't take your freedom for granted Don't let curiosity take you for a ride As years drag on when you wake up next to her You'll wish that in your sleep you had died You'll wish you had died Cm7 F Gdim Bb
