She said,
D7Come in my dear,
You're looking tired tonight
Your bath is drawn, let me F#7+5loosen your Bmtie
And F#7fix you your usual drink A7  
____Verse: 2
D7He settles back,
Takes a magazine,
Kicks off his shoes, as he F#7+5studies the Bmform
Of F#7every appealing soubrette A7-9  
____Chorus: 1
But Dmwhere are the flowers that he used to bring
With every enE7dearing reAmmark
ReDmminds her of passionate Gpromises,
That Dmhe only E7made in the Adark, in her A#dimbed,
BmShe wants to shout at the Eback of his head
Look at Ame, look at me, look at A#dimme I'm afraid
BmSee what it's come to,
Gm6  D7---------/A---/C  
I'm just your Mistress and Maid.

But the dinner is cold
The look in his eye tells her F#7+5it won't be lBmong
'till the F#7girls on the page come to life A7-9  
____Chorus: 2
And Dmthey'll get the flowers that he used to bring
With every enE7dearing reAmmark,
And Dmall of the passionate Gpromises
He'll Dmnever fulE7fill in the dAark, in their A#dimbed,
BmShe wants to shout at the bEack of his head
Look at Ame, look at me, now that A#dimI'm not afraid.
BmSee what it's come to,
Gm6I'm not your mistress and D7maid.
