Standard (EADGBE)

This song can be found on the CD "The World of Benny Hill - Benny Hill

Sings?" which includes 25 of his comedy classics. It also appeared on

an old vinyl recording, "The Golden Hour of Benny Hill."

She's got eyes that glow like cigarettes,

With ashtrays underneath,

And when she bites her fingernails,

Her mother hides her teeth.

Her general appearance,

Is what you'd call offbeat,

I don't mind girls with kinky boots, but she's...

[N/

]Got kinky feet.

Chorus

Oh there's flowers that bloom in the summertime, the winter and the

fall,

But the rose that blooms in my heart, I love the best of all.

Now her teeth are just like pearls,

Only Pearl's teeth ain't so hot,

Her heart is in the right place,

But the rest of her is not.

Now, at her birthday party,

The cake, it wasn't bad,

And I liked the 18 candles that were on...

[N/C]The slice I had.

Chorus

Now she's lazy, she's lethargic,

And working she resents,

She's slower than a nudist

Trying to climb a barbed wire fence.

Why she talks so slow, one evening when

She went out with her boss,

Before she could say I'm not that kind...

[N/C]Of a girl she was.

Chorus twice

This is one in a series of Benny Hill songs I've learned by ear. Most of

these songs have only three chords which makes it easy figure them out. I

might have missed some chords or put the wrong ones down, but the basic

structure is there at any rate. I welcome any comments, corrections or

suggestions for improvement.
