Dear Mavis I'm compelled to write this letter
C
In the hope that you will soon be feeling better
Eb
I've a feeling you should go and see a doctor
C
If you haven't then you know you really oughta
Ab F
I was worried so I went to see the vicar but before I could confess
F
He did confess to be a stripper
Eb C
Dear Mavis it was very strange to see him so I thought I'd write and ask for your opinion
Eb
Should I grass on him report him to the cardinal
C
Or whether I should egg him on to turn professional
Ab
If I dob on him they'll call him plastic scouser
F
But the only thing the stripper vicar wears (is plastic trousers)
C B A G F C C B A G F G
Mavis' opinion is all we really seek Mavis' opinion is all we really
C F C F
Should we lie, while he's still alive should we lie, while he's still alive
G F
Cos when the vicar strips he gets away with it
Eb C
Dear Mavis I thought I'd follow up my letter drop a line about the fate of our poor vicar
Eb C
Very tragically his time on earth has ended found him hanging in his stockings and suspender
Ab F
Dear Mavis if you tell us what your thoughts are and I hope they're not biased
F
(Cos you are the vicars daughter)

Should we lie, while he's still alive should we lie, while he's still alive
C

F
And he's making wine from water while he dresses like his daughter
C
And we know that he's a rip off cos we've seen him with his kit off
F
