A                             
Wossy, in two weeks you’ll be gone

           E/A
This is my last opportunity to sing you a song

     G/A
So I wanna ask a favour before

                D         Dsus2-D*
You get on with your life

A
Jonathan, I wanna make love to you

E/A
Wossy I just wanna make sweet love to you

G/A
Just once, I wanna make sweet love to you

G          G/A     D
Sweet love to your wife

             Dm
There’s just something about her
That drives me insane
               A/C#
She’s got that cute sense of humour
And a brilliant brain
           Bm7
But if I’m totally honest
My feelings for Jane
    A
Are mostly sexual

            Dm
Don’t wanna put you and her
In an awkward position
      A/C#
But I know I’d regret it
If I didn’t ask the question
       Bm7
I have talked to my wife
And she gave me permission
   G/A                   A
We both have a celebrity shag concession

    G   G/A  D
And mine is Jane

G   G/A  D
Hers is Wayne Rooney

Em7
Although to be fair

        G/A
There’s not much chance of scoring there

D        A
Jane, in two weeks time

     G            
Your hubby will be out on the breadline baby

    D             
And surely you’re not gonna wanna be

G                    A   
Spending time with a bum

D                A
I know that in a month or three

           G
He’ll have weaselled his way back onto my TV

           D                   G
But in the meantime, would you consider me

      E
For a little fun?
The next 4 verses follow the A - E/A - G/A - D pattern (Could switch the G/A for a G for a bit of variety on one or 2) Just one night, Jane, would embiggen me Just one night, baby, you’ll be diggin’ me Just a little dabble in temporary bigamy I just wanna make love, sweet love to you What I wouldn’t give for just one night with you Nothing too weird, just a nice night with a Couple of whips and an underwater camera I just wanna make a little sweet love to you Wossy, you can watch if that’d make you feel better That’d make it even more unforgettable You can hold the camera and make some bruschetta In case I get hungry making sweet love to your wife Stop me, won’t you Wossy, if this is getting weird? The thought of Jane nuzzling my ginger beard I’m just doing a song, like we agreed And it just happens to be a song about how I wanna Make sweet love to your wife Oooh
Dm
Jonathan I’ve always admired you

      A/C#
I was nervous about our interview

         Bm7
But your producers assured me
That all I had to do
       G/A                    D
Was be totally honest...with you
Then mess around in D for a while, if you can do what Tim does, congratulations!
