Вступление
CAPO 3rd fret
[Verse 1]
A D E7
There once was a lawyer they called Mr Clay
A
He had but two clients and they wouldn't pay
D E7
At last, of starvation, he grew so afraid
A
That he courted and married a wealthy old maid
[Verse 2]
A D E7
At the wedding the lawyer made one big mistake
A
'Twas not in omitting the wine or the cake
D E7
The ring was well chosen, they had a big feed
A
But the lawyer did not get a warranty deed
[Chorus]
A D E7 A
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate, very unfortunate man
A D E7 A
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate, very unfortunate man
[Verse 3]
A D E7
At night in their chamber the lady arose
A
And began to prepare to retire and repose
D E7
Her husband sat near her admiring her charms
A
That gave him such pleasure to hold in his arms
[Verse 4]
A D E7
She went to the washstand to bathe her fair face
A
And thus she destroyed all her beauty and grace
D E7
The rose on her cheek quickly grew very faint
A
And he saw on the towel, 'twas nothing but paint
[Chorus]
A D E7 A
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate, very unfortunate man
A D E7 A
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate, very unfortunate man
[Verse 5]
A D E7
She went to the mirror to take down her hair
A
And when she had done so, her scalp was all bare
D E7
Said she, don't be frightened to see my bald head
A
I'll put on my cap when I get into bed
[Verse 6]
A D E7
She hung her false hair on the wall on a peg
A
Then she proceeded to take off her leg
D E7
Her trembling husband got quite a surprise
A
When she asked him to come and take out her glass eye
[Verse 7]
A D E7
Now all you young men who would marry for life
A
Be sure to examine your intended wife
D E7
Remember the lawyer who trusted his eyes
A
And a little bit later got quite a surprise
[Chorus]
A D E7 A
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate, very unfortunate man
A D E7 A
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate, very unfortunate man
