[Verse 1]
C                    E7
Who cares if you're jewish,

          Am              C
And your breath smells of garlic,

          E7                  Am
And your nose is a shiny red light.

    F         D7
To me you are gorgeous,

     C            A7
And everything's right,

       D7                       G7
When I turn off the living room light.

C                    E7
Your clothes are old-fashioned,

     Am              C
Your knuckles are bony,

          E7               Am    C
Your hair looks a terrible sight.

      F               D7
But I don't have to see you,

     C            A7
The way that you are,

       D7           G            C
When I turn off the living room light.

       E7                        Am     C
When I turn off the living room light.

   F            D7
I don't have to see you,

    C            A7
The way that you are,

       D7            G7           C
When I turn off the living room light.
[Bridge]
          F        D7      C
Well it's not that you are ugly,

    F       D7      C
And I'm not being cruel,

    F        D7    C  A7
It helps me to relax, dear

   D7               G7
It helps to keep me cool.

    F      D7   C
Now I am not intending,

   F     D7    C
To make you feel ashamed,

       F        D7    C       A7
What's wrong in me pretending?

            D7             G7
'Cause you can't help being plain.
[Verse 2]
C                E7
Your nose may be bulbous,

     Am           C
Your face may be spotty,

      E7                      Am    C
Your skin may be wrinkled and tight.

       F            D7
But I don't want to see you,

    C            A7
The way that you are,

      D7                      G7
So I turn off the living room light.

C                E7
We don't feel so ugly,

     Am           C
We don't feel so draggy,

    E7                      Am
We don't feel so twisted up tight.

        F             D7     C        A7
And we don't feel as ugly as we really are,

         D7          G7           C
When we turn off the living room light.

         E7                        Am   C
When we turn off the living room light.

         F        D7      C       A7
We don't feel as ugly as we really are,

         D7          G7               C
When we turn off the living room light
