[Verse]
     G        C     F                   G
When we first met I thought you did not notice
    F                  G
You called me Phil not Otis
                  C        Am
Ain't that really just too much
  Dm7     G
I felt so touched
    G     C       F           G
I'd never known a lady act so strangely
  F                   G
I thought you might derange me
                  C      Am
You always go for spotty youths
      F        G
Ain't that the truth

[Chorus]
G       G/F# Em
O Maxine     don't ever leave me
           C                             Am
Though you make love in a matter of fact way
     C                                     D
When you're not here I hardly know what to say
G        G/F# Em
O Maxine      don't ever worry
           C                              Am
Though the future sometimes look a little grim
     C                                            D
I'll give you much more than ever you'll get from him

[Verse]
  G          C         F            G
I walked you out   You told me to unhand you
F            G
Forced me to command you
                 C         Am
To show a little care  and love
        Dm7   G
I can't get enough
         G       C       F                 G
But I'll take my time to charm you with my favours
              F                   G
And you'll forget those schoolboy ravers
                C      Am
To see I really am the best
       F    G
you'll ever get

[Middle 8]
G           Em
Ah ah ah Maxine (O Maxine)
G           Em
Ah ah ah Maxine (Do you know what I mean)

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
F       F/E Dm
O Maxine    don't ever leave me
           Bb                            Gm
Though you make love in a matter of fact way
     Bb                                     C
When you're not here I hardly know what to say
F        F/E Dm
O Maxine     don't ever worry
           Bb                              Gm
Though the future sometimes look a little grim
     Bb                                            C
I'll give you much more than ever you'll get from him
