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 (x32010@1)  /   /  E (022100@1)/  /       B (x2444x@1)   /    / D (xx0232@1)/   /
[C]Poor old Prunella was [G7]built like a fella,
       A (x02220@1)   /   /    A (x02220@1) /  /       B (x2444x@1)   / / G/ (320003@1)She [F]went 'round to see Doctor [G7]Kerr,
   G (320003@1)       C (x32010@1) /     /  E (022100@1)/       /            B (x2444x@1)      /  /   D (xx0232@1)    /
He said, ^?[C]Now then, my case,^? but when she [G7]stripped to the waist,
/     A (x02220@1)  /   /        G (320003@1) A (x02220@1) B (x2444x@1)     C (x32010@1)   / / C/ (x32010@1)He [F]couldn't help [G7]calling her ^?[C]sir^?.

 /     C (x32010@1)/  /    E (022100@1)   /   /     B (x2444x@1)/      /  D (xx0232@1)   /
^?Don't worry your head, I'm a [G7]surgeon,^? he said,
 /       A (x02220@1)   /   /   A (x02220@1)/    /        B (x2444x@1)    / / G/ (320003@1)^?I'll [F]graft you two on just like [G7]that,^?
G (320003@1)       C (x32010@1)  /   /   E (022100@1) /      /       B (x2444x@1)/  /   D (xx0232@1)   /
But he [C]went and got plastered, the [G7]silly old fool,
/         A (x02220@1) /   /        GA  B (x2444x@1)    C (x32010@1)   / / C/ (x32010@1)And he [F]grafted them [G7]onto her [C]back.

/   C (x32010@1)  /   /  E (022100@1)/   /       B (x2444x@1)   /   / D (xx0232@1)/   /
Now poor old Prunella, she [G7]can't get a fella,
      A (x02220@1)  /  /  A (x02220@1)  /  /     B (x2444x@1)   /     / G/ (320003@1)To [F]walk or to talk or ro[G7]mance with,
 /        C (x32010@1)    /     /  E (022100@1)  /    /     B (x2444x@1)      /     /    D'Cause (xx0232@1)[C]no one wants to chat with a [G7]girl who looks like that,
/   /     A (x02220@1)/   /         B (x2444x@1)   A (x02220@1) G (320003@1)   C (x32010@1)   /    /
But by [F]golly, she's [G7]great fun to [C]dance with.
