Once upon a time I thought
Cm Fm G
"What's the one thing I haven't got?"
Cm Fm
There's not a single thing in this world I couldn't buy
Fm G
That's when a gentleman caught my eye
Cm Fm G
Once or twice we went around
Cm Fm G
But now I'll tell you the thing I've found
Cm Fm
You shouldn't make your move until you know the price
Fm Cm
Because gentlemen aren't nice
Cm D Dm C
Just because I won't agree to take his arm
Cm B Cm
And I occasionally forget his name
Cm D Dm C
He likes to call inclemency what I call charm
Cm
But I know they're all the same
Cm Fm G
I think I've realized my first mistake
Cm Fm G
When he cried that his heart would break
Cm Fm
I would have thought that I was worth the sacrifice
Cm
But gentlemen aren't nice
Cm D Dm C
Just because I leave him all alone for days
Cm B Cm
And go about with others of his kind
Cm D Dm C
He dares complain about my evil ways
Cm Fm
And drive me out of my -- out of my mind
Cm Fm
What I relate is hard to bear
Cm Fm G
I only endure it so that I might spare you ladies
Cm Fm
I'm not known for my good advice
Cm
But gentlemen aren't
G Fm
So agreeable
Cm G Fm
Love ain't a paradise
Cm G Fm
And if I told you once, I won't tell you twice
Fm G Cm
Gentlemen aren't nice
Cm Cm
Gentlemen aren't nice
