Hill Benny

Hill Benny - Prunella guitar chord

Title:   Prunella

Artist:  Benny Hill

Chords:  C, G7, F

I saw Benny Hill perform this song on a video I rented one time which had a

bunch of various skits and songs.  He was doing various characters, such as

Roger Twitaker, and he sang this song while doing the character Anthony

Newley.

This song is 3/4 beat.  I play it by picking the bass note followed either

by strums of the three high strings.  The bass notes vary throughout the

song.  Play either the bass note or a strum which is indicated by a '/'.

   C    /   /  E  /  /       B     /    / D  /   /

[C]Poor old Prunella was [G7]built like a fella,

       A     /   /    A   /  /       B     / / G /

She [F]went 'round to see Doctor [G7]Kerr,

   G         C   /     /  E  /       /            B        /  /   D      /

He said, ^Ó[C]Now then, my case,^Ô but when she [G7]stripped to the waist,

/     A    /   /        G   A   B       C     / / C /

He [F]couldn't help [G7]calling her ^?[C]sir^?.

/     C  /  /    E     /   /     B  /      /  D     /

^ÓDon't worry your head, I'm a [G7]surgeon,^Ô he said,

/       A     /   /   A  /    /        B      / / G /

^ÓI'll [F]graft you two on just like [G7]that,^Ô

G         C    /   /   E   /      /       B  /  /   D     /

But he [C]went and got plastered, the [G7]silly old fool,

/         A   /   /        G A  B      C     / / C /

And he [F]grafted them [G7]onto her [C]back.

/   C    /   /  E  /   /       B     /   / D  /   /

Now poor old Prunella, she [G7]can't get a fella,

      A    /  /  A    /  /     B     /     / G /

To [F]walk or to talk or ro[G7]mance with,

/        C      /     /  E    /    /     B        /     /    D

'Cause [C]no one wants to chat with a [G7]girl who looks like that,

/   /     A  /   /         B     A   G     C     /    /

But by [F]golly, she's [G7]great fun to [C]dance with.
