The Only Boy In Town

G


[Verse 1]
      G    D            C    D      G
Oh if only you were the only boy in town
    G            D            C             D
For then I could not play the field and let you down
        Em                  A7
I would not go half-mad for each passing lad
     D                          C
With eyes of blue, green, gray, or brown
       G    D            C    D      G
No, if only you were the only boy in town


[Verse 2]
      G    D            C    D      G
Oh if only you were the only boy in France
    G              D           C                D
Our life would not be like one long, long, long seance
        Em                  A7
I think I would endeavor to love you forever
  D                     C
Instead of only for the nonce
      G    D            C    D      G
If-if only you were the only boy in France


[Verse 3]
        C            Am
With the only boy in town
         G              D
With the only available male
       G                  Am
In the loneliest possible world
            G             D
There would be no daily betrayal


[Verse 4]
      G    D            C    D    G
Oh if only you were the only boy alive
    G          D            C                      D
And I were the queen of our small, small, small beehive
            Em                       A7
Though more pricks than a cactus may always distract us
      D                           C
Would they all take up all my sex drive?
        G      D            C    D    G
Not-not-not if you were the only boy alive


[Outro]
      G    D            C    D      G
Oh if only you were the only boy in town
      G    D            C    D      G
Oh if only you were the only boy in France
