Paul Mccartney
MISTRESS AND MAID
(off the ground)

She said
G7
come in my dear, you're looking tired

tired tonight your bath is drawn, let me
B7+         Em      B7
loosen your tie and fix you your usual
     D7
drink

He settles back, takes a magazine
kicks off his shoes, as he studies the form
of every appealing soubrette
    Gm
But where are the flowers that he used to
            A7          Dm     Gm
bring every endearing remark reminds her
              C            Gm      A7
of passionate promise that he only made
         D
in the dark
       D#0  Em
in her bed, she wants to shout at the
A
back of his head
        D           D#0
look at me, look at me, look at me I'm 
       Em                    Cm6
afraid see what it's come to I'm just
             G7
mistress and maid.

The wine is warm,but the dinner is cold the look in his eyes 
tlls her it won't be long till the girls on the page come to life

And they'll get the flowers that he used to bring with every endearing remark, 
and all of the passionate promises he'll never fullfill in the dark in their bed, 
she wants to shout at the back of his head look at me, look at me, 
now that I'm not affraid see what it's come to

Cm6                        G7
I'm not your mistress and maid
Em                     Cm6
see what it's come to I'm not your
              G7
mistress and maid
