If you don't want to play the Gm7b5 (3x332x), a Bbm works too. And if you have a problem with barre chords
it might be easier to transpose it down to Em.
[Verse 1]
A Fmman's got a heart, C7hasn't he?
JGm7b5oking aC7part -- hasn't Fmhe?
And though BbmI'd be the fBbm7irst one to saEb7y that I wasn't a saiAbnt

I'm Fmreviewing the situation
Can a fellow be a villain all his lC7ife
All the trials, and tribulation
Better settle down and get myself a wFmife
C7And a Fmwife would cook and C7sew for me
And Fmcome for me, and C7go for me
And Fmgo for me and C7nag at me
The Fmfingers she wiC7ll wag at me
The Fmmoney she will C7take from me
A Bbmmisery, she'll mC7ake from  me...

And though I'd be the first one to say that I wasn't a saint

G7 Gm7b5 C7

I'm finding it hard to be really as black as they paint

I'm reviewing the situation

Can a fellow be a villain all his life

All the trials, and tribulation

Better settle down and get myself a wife

C7 Fm C7

And a wife would cook and sew for me

Fm C7

And come for me, and go for me

Fm C7

And go for me and nag at me

Fm C7

The fingers she will wag at me

Fm C7

The money she will take from me

Bbm C7

A misery, she'll make from me...

Fm C7 Fm C7

I think I'd better think it out again!

[Verse 2]

Fm C7

A wife you can keep, anyway

Gm7b5 C7 Fm

I'd rather sleep, anyway

Bbm Bbm7 Eb7 Ab

Left without anyone in the world and I'm starting from now

G7 Gm7b5 C7

So how to win friends and to influence people, so how

I'm reviewing the situation

I must quickly look up everyone I know

Titled people, with a station

Who can help me make a real impressive show

C7 Fm C7

I will own a suite at Claridge's

And run a fleet of carriages

Who do I know? Nobody!

Bbm Bbm7 Eb7 Ab

All my dearest companions have always been villains and thieves

G7 Gm7b5 C7

So at my time of life I should start turning over new leaves?

I'm reviewing the situation

If you want to eat, you've got to earn a bob

Is it such a humiliation

For a robber to perform an honest job

C7 Fm C7

So a job I'm getting, possibly

I wonder who my boss'll be?

When you're old, and it's cold and who cares if you live or you die
