Lyrics

(C)Why would a fellow want a (F)girl like (Dm)her,

a (C)frail and fluffy (G9)(G)beauty?

(C)Why can't a fellow ever (F)once (Dm)prefer a (C)solid (G7)girl like (C)me?

She's a frothy little (Dm7)(G7)bubble with a flimsy kind of (C)charm.

And with very little (Am7)trouble I could break her little (Em)arm!

(G7)Oh, (C)why would a fellow want a (F)girl like (Dm)her,

so (C)obviously (G9)(G7)unusual?

(C)Why can't a fellow ever (F)once (Dm7)prefer a (C)usual (G7)girl like (C)me?

Her (F)cheeks are a pretty shade of (C)pink,

but (F)not any pinker than a (C)rose is.

Her (F)skin may be delicate and (C)soft,

but (Am)not any (D)softer than a (G7)doe's is.

(C)Her (F)neck is no whiter than a (C)swan's,

she's (F)only as dainty as a (C)daisy.

She's (F)only as graceful as a (C)bird,

so (Am)why is the (D)fellow going (G7)doe's is.

(C)Her (G7)crazy?

Oh, (C)why would a fellow want a (F)girl like (Dm7)her,

a (C)girl who's merely (G9)(G7)lovely?

(C)Why can't a fellow ever (F)once (Dm7)prefer a (C)girl who's (G7)merely (C)me?

me? What's the matter with the (Dm)man?

What's the matter with the (G7)man?

What's the matter with the (C)man?
