Chords and lyrics for A Well Respected Man by Kinks
G
1.’Cause he
C
gets up
G
in the
Am
morning, and he
C
goes
to
G
work
at
Am
nine,
and he
C
comes
G
home at
Am
five-thirty, gets the
C
same
train
G
every
Am
time.
’cause his
C
world is
G
built on
Am
punctuality,
C
to him it
G
never
Am
fails.
Chorus: And he’s
C
oh
G
so
Am
good, and he’s
C
oh,
G
so
Am
fine,
and he’s
C
oh,
G
so
Am
healthy, in his
C
body
G
and
his
Am
mind.
He’s a
F
well respected
Em
man about town,
F
doing the best things,
D
so
G
conservatively.
2.And his
C
mother
G
goes to
Am
meetings, while his
C
father
G
paws
the
Am
maid,
And she
C
stirs her
G
tea with
Am
countenance,
while
C
discussing
G
foreign
Am
trade,
And she
C
passes
G
looks as
Am
well as bills at
C
every
G
sauve
young
Am
man.
3.And he
C
likes his
G
own back
Am
yard, and he
C
likes
his
G
fags
the
Am
best.
‘Cause he’s
C
better
G
than the
Am
rest and his
C
own
sweat
G
smells
the
Am
best.
And he
C
hopes to
G
grab his f
Am
ather’s loot when
C
pater
G
passes
Am
on.
4. And he
C
plays the
G
stocks and
Am
shares, and he
C
goes
to
G
the
Am
regatta.
He
C
adores the
G
girl next
Am
door, and he’s
C
dying
G
to get at
Am
her,
But his
C
mother
G
knows the
Am
best about the
C
matri
G
monial
Am
state.
