A Well Respected Man  The Kinks

A Well Respected Man sung by the 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.
Chorus:
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.
Chorus:
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]matrim[G]onial [Am]state.
Chorus:
A 60's blast from the past from Kraziekhat.
