CAPO 3rd fret

[Verse 1]
A                             D         E7
There once was a lawyer they called Mr Clay
                                         A
He had but two clients and they wouldn't pay
                           D           E7
At last, of starvation, he grew so afraid
                                          A
That he courted and married a wealthy old maid

[Verse 2]
A                             D         E7
At the wedding the lawyer made one big mistake
                                       A
'Twas not in omitting the wine or the cake
                           D           E7
The ring was well chosen, they had a big feed
                                       A
But the lawyer did not get a warranty deed

[Chorus]
        A                 D                 E7               A
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate, very unfortunate man
        A                 D                 E7               A
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate, very unfortunate man

[Verse 3]
A                             D      E7
At night in their chamber the lady arose
                                   A
And began to prepare to retire and repose
                           D           E7
Her husband sat near her admiring her charms
                                           A
That gave him such pleasure to hold in his arms

[Verse 4]
A                             D         E7
She went to the washstand to bathe her fair face
                                           A
And thus she destroyed all her beauty and grace
                           D           E7
The rose on her cheek quickly grew very faint
                                            A
And he saw on the towel, 'twas nothing but paint

[Chorus]
        A                 D                 E7               A
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate, very unfortunate man
        A                 D                 E7               A
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate, very unfortunate man

[Verse 5]
A                             D         E7
She went to the mirror to take down her hair
                                             A
And when she had done so, her scalp was all bare
                            D           E7
Said she, don't be frightened to see my bald head
                                    A
I'll put on my cap when I get into bed

[Verse 6]
A                             D         E7
She hung her false hair on the wall on a peg
                                    A
Then she proceeded to take off her leg
                           D           E7
Her trembling husband got quite a surprise
                                                   A
When she asked him to come and take out her glass eye

[Verse 7]
A                             D         E7
Now all you young men who would marry for life
                                  A
Be sure to examine your intended wife
                           D           E7
Remember the lawyer who trusted his eyes
                                       A
And a little bit later got quite a surprise

[Chorus]
        A                 D                 E7               A
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate, very unfortunate man
        A                 D                 E7               A
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate, very unfortunate man
