A Lady of A Certain Age: The Divine Comedy
[Intro] (finger style)
F(X2), G7(X2), C(X2), C/Bb(X2), Fadd9/A(X2), G7sus4(X2), G7(X1 strum)
[Verse 1]
Am Fmaj7/A
Back in the day you had been part of the smart set
G7 C9 C
You holidayed with kings, dined out with starlets
F Dm6
From London to New York, Cap-Ferrat to Capri
Am/F E7
In perfume by Chanel and clothes by Givenchy
Am Fmaj7
You sipped camparis with David and Peter
G7 Csus2 C
At Noel's parties by Lake Geneva
Fmaj7 Dm6
Scaling the dizzy heights of high society
Am E7
Armed only with a cheque-book and a family tree
[Chorus]
F G
You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur
C C/Bb
Until the light of youth became obscured
F G7
And left you on your own and in the shade
Bb6 Dm E
An English lady of a certain age
F G
And if a nice young man would buy you a drink
C C/Bb
You'd say with a conspire-a-tor-i-al wink
F Fm
"You wouldn't think that I was seventy"
F/G G Am
And he'd say, "no, you couldn't be!"
[Verse 2]
Am Fmaj7/A
You had to marry someone very, very rich
G7 C9 C
So that you might be kept in the style to which
F Dm6
You had all of your life been accustomed to
Am/F E7
But that the socialists had taxed away from you
Am Fmaj7
You gave him children, a girl and a boy
G7 Csus2 C
To keep your sanity a nanny was employed
Fmaj7 Dm6
And when the time came they were sent away
Am E7
Well that was simply what you did in those days
[Chorus]
F G
You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur
C C/Bb
Until the light of youth became obscured
F G7
And left you on your own and in the shade
Bb6 Dm E
An English lady of a certain age
F G
And if a nice young man would buy you a drink
C C/Bb
You'd say with a conspire-a-tor-i-al wink
F Fm
"You wouldn't think that I was seventy"
F/G G Am
And he'd say, "no, you couldn't be!"
[Verse 3]
Am Fmaj7/A
Your son's in stocks and bonds and lives back in Surrey
G7 C9 C
Flies down once in a while and leaves in a hurry
F Dm6
Your daughter never finished her finishing school
Am/F E7
Married a strange young man of whom you don't approve
Am Fmaj7
Your husband's hollow heart gave out one Christmas Day
G7 Csus2 C
He left the villa to his mistress in Marseilles
Fmaj7 Dm6
And so you come here to escape your little flat
Am E7
Hoping someone will fill your glass and let you chat about how
[Chorus]
F G
You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur
C C/Bb
Until the light of youth became obscured
F G7
And left you on your own and in the shade
Bb6 Dm E
An English lady of a certain age
F G
And if a nice young man would buy you a drink
C C/Bb
You'd say with a conspire-a-tor-i-al wink
F Fm
"You wouldn't think that I was seventy"
F/G G Am
And he'd say, "no, you couldn't be!"
